Hi,
Thanks Vipul for the solution. It worked
partially. But i want a combo box type functionality in excel. Where user will
type in first 2-3 characters and rest of the word should be picked up from the
list. The list is common and i nearly have 4000 names which is likely to
increase. So please do let me know how we could solve this.
Thanks.
Rahul.

HI,
--Rahul
I am doing
some data capturing and storing in Excel. I have various
columns
in which data is stored. Now in this in some of the
columns i store company
name, address, city, state and so on.
So i want to make these some columns
as list columns so that
it will take the name from the list prefilled in
those
cells.

Go to menu Data > Validation, On
the settings tab, Allow > select List, Then
in the source
textbox, enter your lists, e.g. Yes, No, OK. Click OK.
Now
this cell will become a drop down list. You can copy the
format to the cells
which require the same settings, like all
the rows under a specific
category.

One
more thing is there a way to compare two excel files as we
compare two
word documents.
