I have a drop down list in A3 with 2 items in the list. If i select the item
1 from A3 list, I would like to open the drop down list in A4, and see the
list associated with item 1 in A3.

If I select item 2 in A3, the list in A4 would be a different list, one that
is associated with A3. is this possible without utilizing access?

In a simple example as you give, all you need is something like this formula
in your second DV, type of list

=if(F1=1,m1:M4,N1:N4)

better still use named ranges.
