See attached. Used Data Validation. Seems the simplest method and adjusted the font size for the particular row.

depending on the finished worksheet I find that sometime the data validation list becomes almost unreadable due to size of letters.You sample is good though.If I require a control form button such as a combobox will that work as well in the same way as your sample?
Also I need to sometimes have the same words for the different list colors in data validation list.I get an error with my formula.Please see
