Default Excel VBA programmatic validation problem

I've tried directly cutting and pasting the supplied code into a fresh
VBA Project. I'm using the automatically generated Worksheet_Activate
callback in this case, I've also tried the same thing in a ComboBox
Change procedure. No luck. I always get to the line:
Range("e5").Validation.Add Type:=xlValidateList, _
AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, _
Operator:=xlBetween, _
Formula1:=Txt


and the following error is thrown:
"Run-Time error '1004': Application-defined or object-defined error".

On debugging, the xl constants seem to be defined, as is the variable
Txt. Semi-colon seperated text rather than Comma separated seems to
make no difference.
I've tried the whole thing with a variety of definitions of the range
as well.

Thanks for the help - it's making the frustration easier to deal with!

Justin
