Default Saving data in pull down lists?

Is it possible for Excel to save the old number of a cell into a pull down
list when another number is put into the cell?

Maybe this from Debra Dalgleish's site

DV0038 - Flexible Item List -- Use formulas to automatically add new unique
items to a data validation dropdown list. Sample file from Ron Coderre.

Gord,

This works good, but now I have another issue.(The issues never stop)

If I input a value into the table I am importing into excel and then refresh
the table the value I just put in is overwritten by the incoming data. Is it
possible to "lock" a value into a cell that is in an imported table so that
when I do refresh the table the value remains constant?
