    Yes you can.

    First set the ListFillRange property to a multi-column range (for example, ‘A1:B3’). Then set the ColumnWidths property to something like ’50;0′, which will make the second column invisible. And finally, set the BoundColumn property to 2.

    The list will display Option1, Option2, Option3. And if you query it’s value (ComboBox1.Value), it will return the value associated with the selected option (1, 2 or 3).
