Default Drop Down List

is it possible to choose an item from a dropdown list which will enter
a different value other than that chosen. Why I want to do this is as
follows:

We have 20 steps in our Process and each one is assigned a number e.g

1 = Forming
2 = Drying
3 = Paper
4 = Cutter

etc etc

I would like to display the Text in a Drop down for that Cell but
enter the corresponding Number into the Cell. If I chose Drying I
would like to see the number 2 appear in the Cell, or if I chose
Cutter I would like the Number 4 to be entered in the Cell.

Thanks

Pete
