Default Dropdown list to return different value

Hello,
Does anyone know how I can make a dropdown list in Excel return a value that
is not necessarily in the list?
Example - the list would include city names and possibly the corresponding
code, but I would like it to return only the corresponding three digit "code".
Langdon City = 292
Munich City = 396
Hannah City = 442
I am assuming this is not possible just using the Data Validation feature in
Excel, and I am more than willing to try it via VB, but I'm not familiar
enough with the code to know where to start!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Tanya
