I have a field (well all of them really - I want this to be the default behaviour) where I want to show a list down of all available selections for a text field (i.e dropdown) but still have the ability for the user to type data into the field in order to select from the available options.
Currently, once I put my cursor into the field, I have to start typing something into the text field for the list to appear.
I want the list to appear immediately once the field is on focus without having to wait for the user to start data entering information.
Is this possible?

AFAIK this is not how dropdown fields work pretty much anywhere, if you're talking about a user focusing the field via TAB keypress versus via Mouse click. And if you're talking about mouse click, then the behavior you describe as wanting is what already happens. This really boils down to a User Training issue.
