Default data validation & key board usage

Hello everybody
I protected my worksheet with only B1 to be editable. In B1 I created
datavalidation|list. What i want is to use Keyboard ie. arrow keys instead
of mouse. Is it possible. My worksheet contains Worksheet_change macro.
Thanks to all
regards

To do what? You can just type the value in, it doesn't have to be mouse
selected.

This list is of ID nos of the students. I want to just scroll down the list
instead of entering one by one from key board.

Once DV is clicked, the down arrow does that.
