Can't figure out this ListBox

Hello Everyone,

I inherited this Document with a dropdown.  I can't figure out where it's getting it's data property set. Here is a picture of the ListBox, it's in a container, but I've taken it out for simpler examination.

When I look at the properties, I see that the Field is "Hierarchy Drill Down" and that it has 2 linked objects.  How on earth do I hunt down these linked objects?

When I do search in the script for the term "Hier" amongst all tabs, I find nothing.

I do however find where the pertinent data population this hellish listbox is coming from,

CompanyGrouping:

LOAD

  Whse_District,

// Company,

  BusinessUnit,

  Division

FROM

E:\01.Repository\EXTERNAL\EXCEL\FGExtrapolation\FGExtrapolation.xlsx

(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet2)

;

But that's it, there is nothing linking the CompanyGrouping table to anything called a "Hierarchy Drill-Down" or a listbox of any kind.

The Up Arrow is the clue to what is going on.

Your listbox is using a Drill-Down dimension.  On a chart (any chart) select the Dimensions Tab, and then click on Edit Groups. You should find the Hierarchy Drill-Down group there.

Okay, so @Colin Albert's solution didn't seem to work out of the box for me, but it put me so close that anyone with a room temperature IQ could figure it out.  I'll post what I found here.

The Dimensions tab is nowhere to be found after Right-Clicking Properties

So I went to Settings > Document Properties > Groups and I found he offending Group!

I simply deleted the offending Group which is no longer listed in the photo above, and I was on my way!

Thank you for yalls help.
