What would be the FORMULA to list the numbers between the value of a cell and 1? Basically finding all whole numbers between 1 and the value of the cell.

Example
(Source) A1 = 4
(Result) B1 = 1 / B2 = 2 / B3 = 3 / B4 = 4 / etc.

Purpose, I want to enter a number into a cell (A1), and create a data validation for later use with 1 through the value of that cell (A1)
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
I don't think that you can create a data validation list with a formula. You'll need a macro. In what cell do you want the data validation list?

Not necessarily needing the data to go directly into a data validation list. Just need to create the number list first (in B1 for this example). From there I can setup the Data Validation with OFFSET.

Excel Formula:
=sequence(A1)
And then id the DV use
Excel Formula:
