Default Make input in one column determine dropdown list in another.

Is there any way I can make the info thats input in one column (selected by
dropdown list) determine which (one of several) dropdown list is used in
another column?

Default Make input in one column determine dropdown list in another.

Use a list formula of the type

=OFFSET(IF(E1=1,rng1,rng2),0,0,(COUNTA(IF(E1=1,rng 1,rng2))),1)

where E1 is the first DD.

If these are data validation dropdown lists, there are instructions here
for dependent lists:
