selecting multiple items from drop-down list
 
I have a data validation drop-down list with the values A through F. I
am trying to modify to allow selection of multiple values from the
list.
I created a macro using the code at http://www.contextures.com/excelfiles.html

but nothing seems to happen.

I am an experienced programmer, but not with implementing excel
macros. My understanding was I just needed to add this macro and it
would be executed on every select. But I put a breakpoiint on the
first executable lie and it never gets invoked. I followed the steps
in excel for macros with no success. I must be overlooking something,
but am unable to find out what.
Any ideas appreciated.

AFAICS it doesn't actually allow multiple selection in one go, it allows to
select one, then another and they all get appended to another list.
