Because I don't personally like the 2-in-one switches I would get a 2 gang box and 2 separate switches. But that is just me.

I did just that. I got a switch for the ceiling fan which will not have a light and a dimmer switch for the recessed light and a double extra deep plastic box for the switches. I did replace the hallway light with a recessed light but that was easy. I won't be working on this until Sunday but I'll be sure to let you know how it goes!
Thanks Again Harold!
Patty

This will be easy also.

I finally got it done. Getting to old to be climbing in the attic! The recessed light is perfect for lighting over the table and the dining room is much cooler with the ceiling fan.
Thanks for all your help and making it easy for me to understand.
