    List dropdown Edit?

    Hi,
    I have a form that has a number of lists validated on it using the data validation feature of 2007.
    How can I modify this so that something can be typed into the cell, in case it is not on the list?

    Go the the Data Validation window for that cell and then go to the Error Alert Tab and uncheck the "Show error alert after....." box.
