Creating a pick list
I may be getting in way over my head here. Is it possible to creat a list
that appears over an active sheet. The list would contain 150 names from another sheet. The reason being is that I need the names people add to the sheet to match exactly as numerous funtions are based on those names. Any thoughts or a direction to point me in? Thank you in adavance Jay |

Thank you in adavance Jay Hi Jason, You could use the listbox feature within excel VBA, the listbox appears on a userform, you can assign any data from your spreadsheet to appear in this listbox. If you need any info on how to do this post back Johny5 |

Any help you could give me here would be very helpful. This would be my first time trying anything with VBA so I am a little out of my league. Thank you for the response. Jay |
