In above example,
First List, Should not be REMOTE LOCATION, then only the user allow to access next column lists, (OR) user should not allow to access other two columns, If Venue column list value is equal to "Remote Location" (Like red marked)
Attn: (All the Columns are Dropdown Lists - comes from Master Sheet = dynamic list using formula like =OFFSET(MASTER!$D$2,0,0,COUNTA(MASTER!$D:$D),1))

L12:L17List=$O12:$Q12
M12:M17List=$S12:$U12

This uses some conditional formatting to color the 'remote location' cells red, and the drop downs will contain no information to select there. It works by having the rows of lookups for the drop down based on the first selection. Those rows of lookups should be put somewhere else out of the way.
