What kind of dropdown. Data =Validation using the list option?

Can' the just edit the source data or is this just a modification to that
one cell and not a permanent change to the dropdown list.

Assuming a one time addition to the cell only, select the cell, do
Data=Validation and select the Error Alert Tab. Uncheck the checkbox
labelled:
"Show error alert after invalid data is entered. "

This will allow a selection from the Dropdown. Then the user can go to the
formula bar and add information (or double click on the cell and add
information).

Some of the people here at work need to add a drop-down list to one of their
excel worksheets. They want to be able to edit the entries after it is
selected. For example - in the list is the value Premium Paid For. They
want to select that value and add more description like a month. So, the
final detail in the cell would say Premium Paid for April.

I am not sure that it can be done...I am hoping an expert user may be able
to help.
