Default I need an option list for a table...

lol i just pressed delete and it was fine.
i was trying to backspace the entry, and it was giving me the 'not
acceptable value' schpeel. so ya we're good if we just hit the delete key.
thanks!

thanks. what if i want them to remain blank?
so for un-used rows there's nothing in them?
like so:
1 Select Zone Select system

2 corner open
3 typical closed
4 corner 2-piece
5
6

i want to be able to make a large table, where certain columns are only
allowed to be certain imputs.
ie: a system type column, where the options are open, closed, or 2-piece
and a zone column, where the options are corner or typical.
so, it will effectivly look like this:
a b
1 Select Zone Select system

2 corner open
3 typical closed
4 corner 2-piece
5 corner closed
6 typical 2 piece
