Hi, Driver!

The best way is to give a name to the range of cells containg your list.
Select the range of cells, then type the name (e.g. MyList) you want to give
it in the name field, which normally shows the cell address as you move
around the worksheet.
Then, select the cells that you want to pick up the validation list and
click Data Validation.
In the "Allow" dropdown, select "List" then in "Source", type in an equals
sign, followed by your name e.g. =MyList and click OK

Hope this helps.

Pete
