I have a spreadsheet where cell "D29" can either be "YES" or "NO." I have a drop down list in cell "D30" to enter three options. What I would like to do on this protected sheet is if Cell "D29" is "NO," the drop down list is locked, otherwise it can be chosen.

Any ideas?

Best regards,
Rick

How to create a cell-sized chart?
Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
in the data validation window in the Source field you key in:
=IF(D29="yes",$F$33:$F$35,$F$36:$F$37)

where $F$33:$F$35 was where I put three possible selections in case D29 is yes and $F$36:$F$37 were empty cells.. maybe one cell would work too.. and I think "Ignore blank" should also be checked
