I've got a spreadsheet where if -A1 = Y- I want B1 to have a drop down list
If -A1 = N- I want B1 to be locked
So far i've got data validation that will lock and unlock B1, but when it's unlocked it's just a text entry box and i don't want that. I want specific entry choices.
1. Select B1
2. Click on Data > Validation
3. Allow: Custom
4. Formula: =$A$1="Y"
Can this be done? I can think of a way i can get a similar result with conditional formatting, but locking the cell would be better because the people who use the spreadsheet aren't the most competent and having the cell locked will prevent more mistakes than simply changing the colour
