How do I create a drop down list in Excel that allows the user to choice
multiple choices from the list in the drop down box?

Any help would be appreciated - Cindy
 
Dave - Thank you for the input. I have used the Data/Validation. However, it
seems to be limted to allow the user to make only one selection. I need the
user to be able to choose multiple items.

I will also check out that URL - I'm thinking at this point I need to go
ActiveX but really don't want to go there.........

Thanks - Cindy
 
Using data validation, you can select multiple items with some
programming. There's an example here:

http://www.contextures.com/excelfiles.html

Under 'Data Validation', look for 'Select Multiple Items from Dropdown List'

Deb answered your question.

I misread your post as allowing the user to choose (just one) from a list of
multiple choices.

Sorry.
