How do you make a drop down list in Excel 2007?

To limit entries to certain items that you define you can create a drop-down list of valid entries that is compiled from cells elsewhere on the worksheet. When you create a drop-down list for a cell it displays an arrow next to that cell. To enter information in that cell click the arrow and then click the entry that you want.

To create or edit a drop down list, select the cell the list is to be in then go to Data > Data Validation.

Under Allow: select List.

Under Source: select the range of values that you want by either highlighting a group of cells OR by typing the name of a named range (which will be explained in a later post).
