Right click on top of the spreadsheet by the icons (in the gray area).
Add a check mark next to "Control Toolbox" (if there isn't one).
Left click on the Icon that says "Design Mode" it has a ruler, pencil, &
"triangle thing".
Now right click on yourcomboboxfor the short-cut menu that hasproperties
in it

I've right-clicked on the control and no shortcut appears, so I
believe that its an active-x control.


But when I open the Control Toolbox, select design mode, and then
right-click on the control, no shortcut menu appears. I know where
the range is that the drop-downs are referencing. I just wan't to see
how they're doing the referencing.


Also, There is no protection on the sheet nor workbook.

I had already tried that and it didn't work. I was wondering what
other options I could try. When the design mode is selected,
shouldn't it the appearance of the worksheet change, because mine
currently isn't? It appears that the worksheet is not changing to
design mode when I click the design icon which is evident from my
being able to add characters to the cell that the combobox is
attatched to.
