    Indicate the presence of a drop-down list

    Hi guys- quick one....

    Does anyone know if it is possible to always display the little arrow which indicates the presence of a drop down list?

    At present the arrow is not present unless the cell is selected and users of my workbook/toolkit can easily miss the drop down lists (although i have colour coded them).

    Hope you can help,

    Cheers,

    S

    you cant
    use a combo list from the forms tool bar instead
    a useful thing is it generates numbers so you can use choose instead of if
    choose(A1,do something,do somthing else,..........)up to 30
