    Select your range in C (i.e C10:C100) Data Tab> Data Validation
    Allow: List
    Source: type in your 5 accounts separated by comma
    Does that work for you?

    substitute commas with semi-colons if your region settings requires

    i have uploaded the file trying to explain the same.

    in the first tab (balance sheet)main account details are mentioned with current balance

    in the second tab (expenses). i have indicated 4 columns in each month. 1st is item..2nd is it cost, 3rd one- a drop down list for credit or debit.. 4th one- a drop down to select the list of banks in which we have to credit or debit.

    every months balance statement should reflect back in the first tab again as indicated in their respective cells.

    can this be possible?
