Drop down boxes

Is there a way of having it so if people select on option on a drop down list
it will only let them edit a certain drop down box later in the sheet? e.g.
If the select project risks the can only edit the drop down boxes relevant to
them and same for bottom up risks etc.

There's a couple of ways you can do that, both of which involve VBA.
One way is to have the VBA code lock those particular cells and/or
unlock the ones to which you want to retain access, then protect the sheet.
The other way is to have the code pop up a message box telling the user
that the particular cell is not available, then clear any selection made in
those cells.
Post back if this sound like what you want. HTH Otto

This did work but then it occured to me that I could only have a section for
impacts or probabilitys relating to these and I need to have both coz I am
going to be linking it all up to seperate lookup tables dependent on their
outcome

What I am basically after is something like this:

Risk Probability Impact
BUR BU1 BUI1
TDR TD4 TDI1
TDR TD2 TDI2
TDR TD3 TDI5
BUR BU4 BU5

Each of these TDR, BUR, PR & GRP will feed into their own seperate look up
tables to get certain results dependent on their probability and risks.
