Dependant Lists in Excel

[Browett]

Hello,

I am trying to create a worksheet with many drop down lists that coincide with each other. I would like to have it where I have a machine drop down list, after selecting your machine, it will then select the proper list of attachments to match with the machine. With the attachment selection, I would need multiple lists to be available for selection.

Example, the machine selected, and a list of attacments would show. From there I would like to select all 4 attachments, each attachment would be selected from a drop down list. Then from each the machine, and the attachments, I would like a price to show up in another column.

Machine
Wheel Loader $150,000
Attachments
quick coupler $4000
fork rack $8000
bucket $12000
grapple $17000

Any ideas?

Thx
