Data Validation Drop Down List - Always Show

Guest

Hi,

I have a data validation drop-down list on a cell, and would like the drop
down arrow to always show, instead of just when you place focus on that
particular cell.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

to set up than the DV list
forms combo box
Combo box A drop-down list box. The item that is selected in the list box
appears in the text box.

Combo box properties

Input range Reference to the range containing the values to display in
the drop-down list.

Cell link Returns the number of the item that's selected in the combo box
(the first item in the list is 1). You can use this number in a formula or
macro to return the actual item from the input range.

For example, if a combo box is linked to cell C1 and the input range for the
list is D10:D15, the following formula returns the value from range D10:D15
based on the selection in the list:

=INDEX(D10:D15,C1)

Drop-down lines Specifies the number of lines to display in the drop-down
list.

3D shading Displays the combo box with a 3-dimensional shaded effect.

you can use Choose(c1,d10,d11,d12,d13,d14,d15) as well
