NSComboBox -- How do I limit user typing to what is in the list

Subject: NSComboBox -- How do I limit user typing to what is in the list

I have been looking on the Cocoa List, I have not found an answer to this. I need to limit the user typed text to what is in the list already. So for example if I have list of say months

January
February
March
April
May
June
July
August
September
October
November
December

So if the user types "J" it selects January, but then if the user types "Ju" it selects June. That all works fine by turning on the [combobox setComplets:YES]. But if the user types say "Q" nothing gets put in the edit field. I don't want the user to be able to type anything that is not in the list.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
