Default Validation based on output of a different cell.

I am trying to set up a spreadsheet in Excel 2000 which has Data Validation
on various columns, and I was wondering if something is possible.

For ease of use, I will just use 2 columns (A and B).

Column A has validation on allowing entry from a list of 5 selection. Column
B is a free entry field.

What I require is that Column B remain a free entry field, except for when
Column A is a certain one of the 5 selections, then I want Column B to only
accept an input from a selection of 3.

Is this possible, and if so, how? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
