One play ..

Assume source data is in Sheet1!A2:B100
col A = names, col B = phone nos

In Sheet2,

Assume the combo box is placed over A9

In design mode, right-click on the combo box Properties

Set the properties of the combo box to:
ListFillRange: Sheet1!A2:B100
LinkedCell: A10
BoundColumn: 2
ColumnCount: 1

Test it out ... the combo box droplist will display only the names, &
selecting the name will place the corresponding phone no into the link cell:
A10

If we set ColumnCount to 2, then the droplist will display both names &
phone nos
