    IF statement with lists and dropdowns

    Can you make an if statement that will choose a certain set of cells for dropdown lists if true and another set of cells for a dropdown lists if false? and how can you make an if statement create a dropdown list?

    Say A1="Yes"
    B1's drop down list will consist of:
    Apple
    Pear
    Peach

    these choices would be found in D1:D3

    and if A1="No"
    B1's drop down list will consist of
    Pepper
    Tomato
    Cabbage

    these choices would be found in E1:E3

    Just wondering if this is possible
