In a cell, is there a way I can make it so people have to select from options in a drop down list from a cell?

absolutely, read up on the ComboBox option. use VBA for more functionality, it's included w/excel.

yes and its relatively easy.


see kranky's link.


i like to use lists/drop downs in combination with database functions. (e.g., use drop downs to let an end user define search parameters for a report)

after you finish filling in all fields like the items below......
name address phone sex height weight

____ ______ _____ ___ _____ ______
____ ______ _____ ___ _____ ______
____ ______ _____ ___ _____ ______
____ ______ _____ ___ _____ ______
____ ______ _____ ___ _____ ______

Next you will need to select all item's, hit the box between A and I or edit select all
go to data at the top and select filter then auto filter. Now you will see each column
will have a drop down arrow allowing you to choose.......

Hope that this is what you were looking for.
