    Should be straightforward, just remove the textbox, put a combobox in its place and add code to populate it in the form's Initialize event.
    If posting code please use code tags, see here.

    If you need any specific help post back with more details.

    For example where do the Applicable To dates come from in the workbook/worksheet?
