Default Date list box

Hi

Is it possible to put something similar to a list box that has a drop
down menu in a spreadsheet? It would have a calendar option that a
date can be selected? Something similar to an online travel company
that enables you to chose a date of depature

TIA
Steve

See Ron de Bruin's site for use of the calendar control.

Default Date list box

Thanks for the reply
I've just been through the tutorial and found it really interesting as
I've never done anything in VBA before.
I got a bit stuck towards the end as I was trying to add the Custom
Menu Item to my toolbar that appears when I right click on the
spreadsheet
Holding and dragging the custom menu doesn't let me right click on the
screen to open the toolbar that I want
I have no problems adding it to the toolbars at the top of the screen,
but I would find it easier if I could right click on the screen and
select it from there. On the calendar that can be downloaded from the
website it's available with the right click toolbar

Any suggestions how I can do it

TIA
Steve

Have a look at data Validation
You need a list of values (dates in your case) elsewhere on the same sheet
