Lists in 2003

[Guest]

Is it possible to enter new data in a cell that is formated to a drop-down
list? I know I can do this in Access, but is there a way to do this in Excel.

Thank you

If the list is entered on a worksheet, you can add new items to the
worksheet list, then change the data validation reference to include the
new cells in the list. (Data>Validation)

If the list was typed in the data validation dialog box, you can modify
the list there.

There's more information in Excel's Help, and here:
