So back to square one which was to have the 01, 02, 03 show a description

I think either a helper cell with VLOOKUP or my event code.

You could make your entries with a leading apostrophe (eg, '01) in the cells

@" - Swimwear"

The only problem is that the DV List will only show the 01 and not the
formatted text part.
