I wanted to use a drop down list that consisted of 'Yes' and 'No'. Whenever someone chooses 'Yes', I want all of the other 3 boxes to turn to 'No'...anyone got any ideas? Thanks in advance!

This is a hack, but it should work. If you are using a range of cells for the contents of your select list:

Have 2 cells for Yes/No on the first option
Have 2 different cells for the Yes/No option of the other three

But, for the Yes option for the other three make it an if then (if the value of select 1 = No, then value = no, else = yes)

Example:
=if(B1='No','No','Yes')
Where B! is the cell of the first select list

This didn't work. I have cells G30, J30, M30, and P30. Whenever I click choose "Yes" from the G30, I want the other 3 to turn to "No" or if I choose M30 to be "Yes", I want the other 3 to turn to "No". Thanks for the try though.
