There's an example here that combines three named ranges, using formulas:

Under Data Validation, look for 'DV0014 - Combine Multiple Lists into One'

There are instructions here for creating named ranges:

Debra thanks, that is nice BUT I neet to create a drop down list using
Validation, does that mean that i first need to create unified list and then
enforce validation on the list, or can i directly create a Validation list
from the differnt lists.

Other words I have a sheet where i want the user to pick from drop down list
combines all 3 lists.

thanks

In the sample file, cell C4 is a data validation dropdown, based on the
combined list. Since a data validation source must be a single row or
column, this combined list is created first, and is the source for the
data validation dropdown.
