    Data Validation list with static and dynamic values

    Is it possible to have a dependent validation drop box that under certain conditions automatically produces an actual value in the cell instead of a drop-down list to choose from? For example, if I choose “Holy Avenger” in the first drop box, and the value for that choice in the second drop box is always a “2”, can you get it to auto-populate in the cell occupied by that 2nd drop box (cell B5 in the attachment)? Or, are you restricted to using Lists only, meaning that you could create a List that only has the value “2” in it, and the user would be required to choose the “2” in the drop box? My attachment uses this latter assumption. Thanks!

    Bump. Is this possible? Surely I have not stumped the geniuses in this forum.

    The following thread appears to solve my problem, but I can't understand the solution provided: http://www.excelforum.com/excel-form...same-cell.html

    I would really appreciate if someone could make some sense of this for me. Have a great weekend!
