Default List box or Combo box??

I want to stop wrong entries (spellings, capitalised and so on) being input
into a column.
I have set up a data validation drop dpwn list, but this has limited
functionality. I have read (and tried) Debra's page on Combo Boxes, but is
there a direct way of applying a combo box to a column rather than
'piggybacking' it on top of a drop down list? Just seems a bit messy. Also,
what are the differences/advantages of combo boxes over list boxes?
Thanks all
