Default drop down lists

Hi Johnny

If I understand you correctly, you have set up your Data Validation for
cell A1 with your list of Hats, Shoes etc.
Just copy cell A1mark the range of cells A2:A20Paste
SpecialValidation
Now you will have the same dropdown for all 20 cells in column A.

thanks to some members of the forum i now have drop down lists on my
spreadsheet, however...

i have to input say 20 peoples information in a month and i was
woundering if i could set it up so that i can use the one drop down
list to deal with all 20 peopels, so for example..

person 1 wants 'shoes', click cell a2, click on shoes from table and
it
is inputed.
person 2 wants 'hats', click cell a3, click on shoes from table and
its
inputed. etc

at present i can only control one cell, with one drop down list, can a
condition on something be places so that i can save my spreadsheet
from
haveing 20 different drop dpwn lists.
thanks
john
