Hello JohnPWilks,
I'm assuming you want a drop down list on a cell. If so:
Highlight all cells you want to put a drop down on and choose Data +
Validation. On the Settings tab choose List from the Allow arrow. At the
bottom type your list.
Eg. Cat,Dog,Fish.
If you already have your list in Excel:
In the bottom box of the Settings tab click the icon to the right and then
highlight the cells that contain your list.
You could also Name you list and type =Listname.
If you need any more help post back.
