Maytag Man

Lists
 
I would like to stack lists, ie by chioosing a selection in one list it
selects another list of Items I can choose from.

example:
Bob
Chores
Grocery
To Do
Tom
Kids Birthdays
CD Collection
Rock
Metal
Jazz
Etc....
Jeff
Programs
Activities

If in one cell I choose Tom, in the next cell I would like to choose from
the sublist of Tom. Also say I chosen 'CD Collection' below Tom, I would like
the next cell to have the sublist shown under that.

Any ideas on where to find this info if its even possible in excell 2003

I think the best place to start would be Data Validation at
Debra Dalgleish's site http://www.contextures.com/tiptech.html
