I have large list of values to add to a drop-down list but they wont
all fit in the Data Validation box, nor do I want to reference a range
of cells, so can you please provide some syntax for doing it through
the VBA.

Thanks,
Dan

Put the list of values in a range, and then use

=M1:M20

in the DV list box (or whatever the range is).

Why don't you want to reference a range of cell? You could store that
list on a hidden work sheet, and refer to the range by name, as
described he
