Default Lists and restricting inputs to cells

Try Data Validation lists but uncheck error message checkbox in Data
validation Dialog, thus users can enter data beyond those in the list!

Hi,

I am developing a data capture spreadsheet and have started applying lists
to various cells to aid the users when completing the form. I am conscious
that I will not be able to provide a comprehensive list of possible answers
and so I want the list to act as a guide but if the user wants to add
something else they can.

Does anyone know if this is possible ad if so how I can do this?

cheers,
