Default Check Validation List for Matching Entries at Start-up

Greetings,

I am using Excel from Office 2003 on an XP box.

I have several workbooks that use a drop down validation list to pick
name from an other workbook of names. It is working fine. The
problem is that the workbook of names called MCL.xls is being updated
due to errors in the list. When an entry in MCL.xls changes, the drop
down validation list no longer matches the value in the validation
drop down cell.

I need a way to identify these unmatched entries when I open each so
that I can manually find the new corrected entry from the drop down
list.

Anyone have any ideas?

Any help will be appreciated.
