If you use the controls from the control toolbox toolbar, you can click on the
design mode button (also on that toolbar) and then rightclick and choose
properties.

You can see linked cells and listfillranges for many of those controls.

The controls from the control toolbox toolbar react to many more events than the
controls from the Forms toolbar.  But you can assign a macro to the controls
from the Form toolbar (as well as shapes from the Drawing toolbar or pictures
inserted into a worksheet).

I've found that for lots of stuff, the controls from the Forms toolbar are
better behaved and sufficient for what I want (and easier to use).
