You can set the 'Show Item Code' in Preferences (Display Setup).
If you want a different description you can edit the row again and now you can edit the description field.

I had wondered what the search items option was so thank you for that.

I was trying to say that the item code field on the invoice should have the drop down to select an item (not the item description field) and the item description field should always be a free text field (that is populated with item name by default).

I am not sure I understand your question. If you have a lot of items you can enable search Items in Company Setup.
Read about that in the Wiki (link from our website).
