Default Drop-Down in excel

Here is my interesting request...
How do I create a drop down in Excel, with predefined values (from another
column), with the ability to select multiple values, and, after I hit enter,
the values are stored in one cell seperated by a comma....???

Is this too difficult to do?
I am using Office 2007...

Thank You.

You can do this with a data validation dropdown list and programming.
There's an example here (not tested in Excel 2007) :

Under Data Validation, look for 'DV0017 - Select Multiple Items from
Dropdown List'
