Default Validation list in data entry form

If you are new to VBA ; from workbook launch VBE using short-key Alt+F11.
From menu 'Insert' a 'UserForm' and check out the toolbox controls
available...

Also check out the topic 'Excel Data Entry Worksheet Form' by Dave Peterson
which do not use a userform

Hi
I have a data validation list which I use in the spreadsheet for the user to
select from the drop down. I would like the user to be able to user a data
entry form instead of adding to the master sheet. Is there any way I can
create a form for this that will use the validation list drop down. When I
tried 'data' and 'form' it only has text boxes.
