If you were using Notes 8.5.2 or higher, you could do that if you were using Xpages.
I don't think you can do that easily, at least not in classic Notes. The only way I can think about doing it (and I am not sure if it will work) is to use Javascript in the client to trigger a hidden button on each key press in the field.
This button in turn will read the value of the listbox and match that against the choices (your 1000+ values), then return just the ones starting with the same string. Those values get put into a hidden field, where the combobox is looking for its values. Initally the full list should be in that field.
That is where I would start looking, at least...
