If you have validate from list set to Yes forms will automatically put whatever is typed in the field in the LOV.
There is no other way of affecting the LOV search string when it opens.

If your LoV is based on Record Group's query which - for example - looks like this:

select ename
from emp

and you ALWAYS want LoV to display values that begin with a certain character, you could simply modify a query:

select ename
from emp
where ename like 'A%'

Or, you could even create a non-database item (let's call it START_CHAR) and use it in Record Group's query:

select ename
from emp
where ename like :start_char ||'%'

Various possibilities, I'd say.
