I inherited an Excel spreadsheet where one column on each
row has a list box in each cell. I want to add 3 more
items to the list, but cannot figure out how to do this.
I have looked at the properties of the list box but see no
reference to the range of cells that the list populates
from.

Any ideas?

What kind of listbox

Data Validation (list option) (no properties, however)
Forms Toolbar (can be populated in properties or populated with code)
Control Toolbox Toolbar (can be populated in properties or populated with
code)

if populated with code, this code must run each time the workbook is opened.


Did you look in Insert=Names=Define and see if there are any names defined
that might be the source?

With the Listbox highlighted, double click it. If it is from the Forms
toolbar, a form will appear where you can enter the Input Range.
If it is from the Control Toolbox, fill in the ListFillRange property.

a 3rd guess:
Could it be Data Validation?
select cell../dl and you should be on your way :)

read help on Data Validation it's a very usefull tool, which
many of us use often.
