Data Validation - List

[Aeronav]

Hi,
I am using Vista and Excel 2007
When the source of Data Validation in cells is a list, Excel displays 8
items.
As far as I know there is no custom setting to display more items.
Is there an API or a VBA Sub to display a longer list, 16 or 20 items for
example ?
Thanks

Try a combo-box. It allows more than 8 entries.

Sure, but I cannot (and do not want) put a combo on each of the 7547 cells
of my column, with a linked cell for each...

The same way you are putting a List validation in all of them

You need only one comboBox as suggested by Debra at

I did know this possibility
