Hi what i want to do is create a spreadsheet that can be adjusted by the
user. For example if we have a user in Illinois who is getting paid 30k I
want the user to choose Illinois from a drop down list and then be able to
enter in thier salary and then for the state of Illinois have a cell where it
displays the taxes that are taken out, the living allowances for that state
etc. this would be a global sheet so anyone can look at it in our company and
adjust the sheet to thier specific location. if someone can point me in the
right direction i would greatly appreciate it.

Sounds more like a project for a professional instead of a newsgroup
question.
