Yeah that is what I wanted, but since our Windows counterpart uses a
Combo Box for the same thing, we have to sue a Combo box also (Mainly
for Documentation and Training purposes). I have argued about this,
but it is not worth fighting them about as far as I am concerned. I
save the fights for what really matter.

So if the user types "J" it selects January, but then 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.
How about using a regular pop-up button? If you want to allow for
the user to "type-ahead", then direct them to the "full keyboard
access" functionality of the keyboard shortcuts section of system
preferences.
