Default Drop down list for a single column

Hi

I haven't been able to figure this out ... probably dumb but here goes.
I want to have a dropdown list of all of the names listed in the cells of a
sinlge column. I don't want to change anything in the cells but rather I
would like the person using the worksheet to be able to click at the top of
the column and select a name from the list after which they are directed to
each of the entries corresponding to that name in that column. Thanks,

Data-Filter-Autofilter

Should work. You will need a header row for this to work properly.
