Months ago, I created a drop down list for one of the columns on my
worksheet.  Since then, I have decided to eliminate the list. I went in to
the place where I defined the range and deleted the name.  I also deleted the
referenced range.  But, when I click on a cell in this column I still get the
drop down arrow, even though the list is empty.  How do I get rid of the
arrow???

Thanks Frank!  I'm gonna go crawl under something now. Too simple.  I
appreciate your help.

Jayceejay,

More than likely you have the data validation still set.  To turn it off, go
to the standard toolbar, hit Data -> Validation, and then hit the "Clear All"
button at the bottom left side of the dialog box.
