Question : Make a cell show drop-down list IF a certain value in another cell?

I wonder if this can be done: if someone types the word "LABOR" in any cell in column G, can the cell next to in (Column H) offer a drop-down list from a range named LABOR?

Thanks so much!

Answer : Make a cell show drop-down list IF a certain value in another cell?

You can use a data validation dropdown with named ranges LABOR and SPACE to display either the LABOR choices or a blank space. See sample workbook.

The data validation Source formula is:
=IF(G1="Labor",LABOR,SPACE)                    'Note the relative address reference. This validation is placed in cell H1, then copied down.
