Hi Oscar

Use a different source as your DV list that only has one of each entry.
If your list is as short as you say, then manually typing it would be the
easiest option.

If, in fact it is a much bigger list in reality, then use Advanced filter
Select your source rangeDataAdvanced FilterUnique values onlyCopy to new
location say C2
Create a dynamic range for your DV
InsertNameDefine
Name myVal
Refers to =$C$2:INDEX($C:$C,COUNTA($C:$C))
