    Validation ComboBox Size or alternative....?

    I have a bunch of validation comboboxes on this excel spreadsheet. Because I
    have the columns so small, it will not show the full length. Is there a way
    for it to automatically expand?

    Or is there a way to get the cells in a freeze frame to not be affected by
    the resize of a column although it's in the same column?

    You can use code to make the column temporarily wider. There's sample
    code here:

    Thanx, it's kind of funky looking though, but I guess this will have to work
    until I can find a way to reference cells.
