Default Data Validation - Drop Down for User Form

I have my user form working fine now. Next question, how do I add a
drop down - data validation to the fields in the user form? Is this
possible in Excel? I have 2007.

Thank you!

Default Data Validation - Drop Down for User Form

Data Validation is a function of the Excel UI and isn't available as
such on UserForms. However, you can put a drop down combobox on the
UserForm and set the Style property to 2 - fmStyleDropDownList. This
will prevent the user form entering any value that is not in the list.
