Default Validate Cell Content AfterUpdate

I know that the title is hardly clear but I will hope to explain what I mean.
I hope someone can help me, you have been wonderful in the past.

I want to be able to enter a value in a cell and then have it validate that
value and change the content of the cell to the appropriate text. Example:

In cell A1, I enter an "x" and when I hit enter, it changes the text to say
"Removed" or if I enter "y" or leave it blank and hit enter, it changes it to
say "N/A". This is like validation on the go type of thing. Can I write a
built-in formula and have it applied to a range of cells which will then
react the way I want when I enter data into them later?

I hope this is clear, its crystal in my head but not when it comes out in
words. Amazing how that works.
