Filling textbox with text dta dynamically

Hi All,


Is there any way we can fill a textbox dynamically with certain text data (say name of persons which are stored from A1:A10)?


The number of texts in col A may always change. Sometimes it is A1:A5 or sometimes A1:A15....something like this.As this happens, the textbox length should also be adjusted accordingly.


I am wondering if we can do it without undergoing a userform technique.


Does it make sense?


Looking forward to your advise.

Hi, kaushik03!

Tried defining a dynamic named range and applying data validation? Would it be the same?

Regards!


EDIT:


Sorry, I misunderstood: you wrote text box and I read drop down box. Please discard.
 
SirJB7,


Thank you for your quick reply.


Yeah...that could be one way to achieve this.


But considering some kind of a good visual effect, I was wondering if we could show the info in a floating text box (I love this feature:), it is very common feature when we use flash technology)on click of a button and hide it.. kind of..


Any thoughts?

Hi, kaushik03!

I think it's the equivalence for the ToolTip property of Visual Basic but not in Excel.
