You do that with list validation in the "Data" ribbon.

Then the next step is to click the "Data Validation" button in the ribbon :
Ok, step 3 is to click "Setitngs" in the "Data Valid" menu , and choose "List" from drop-drown:
Step 4 is to click on that little blue icon in the "List" sub-menu :
The next step is to simply highlight the Cells you needs.

You have to use the data validation command in the data tools group on the data tab and then select a list and enter a reference to your list (assign it to a name range for simplicity).
Follow this link for complete steps.

To do that, you should use Data Validation as described in Amit answer or in this page (except that for the seventh point, which I used for my case in Excel 2010, I replaced the ',' with ';')

Create a hidden drop down list in excel using the Excel data validation options.
Create a list of choice. This option of choice will be appear in drop down list.
(I used 4 option of choice from A1 to A4, user can increase as per their demand)Select the cell/cells in a column where user wants to appear the drop-down list. I selected the cells in a column D from D1 to D10
Go to Data -> Data Validation page
On Settings page
A. In Allow field, select the option 'List'.
B. Ensure Ignore blank & In-cell dropdown option is ticked/selected.
C. In the Source field, select/enter the range of cells where your original list of choice or your original list of options is present;
(here in my case, it’s . $A$1:$A$4)If you prefer, you can enter this range using the mouse, by clicking on the symbol at the right of the Source field and then selecting the required range of cells with the mouse.
D. Click OK.
Once done, select any cell in column D, from D1 to D10. Your drop-down menu should appear containing your list of choice values.
Now, if you want to hide the column that contains the original list. Right click on column and select Hide
Un-Hidding it, by simply typing A1 in the Name Box next to the formula bar.
