The only trouble is there is a limitation to the minimum height for a Forms
Combobox (at least in Excel 2000, assume same in 2003). So you can set all the other dimensions to match your cell but, if the cell is not tall enough, you will need to set the row height bigger to accomodate the combo - the following code, putting in the proper object names, should do it: Sheets("SheetName").Shapes("Drop Down 1").Top = Range(ComboCell).Top Sheets("SheetName").Shapes("Drop Down 1").Left = Range(ComboCell).Left Sheets("SheetName").Shapes("Drop Down 1").Width = Range(ComboCell).Width Range(ComboCell).RowHeight = Sheets("SheetName").Shapes("Drop Down 1").Height If for some reason changing the row height is not desirable, then you could use a combobox from the Controls Toolbox, which does not have a minimum height limitation.
