Data Validation Lists - Draw from more than one source

[SuperCoog]

Issue:

I have a spreadsheet that I am trying to implement data validation lists with, but a bit beyond the standard. Below is the desired outcome:

Select a cell in Column A. A drop down menu of a few items shows up (Choice A, B, C, and D). The choice you select is shown as text in the cell.

Select the adjacent cell in Column B. Another list drops down for a different set of data.

Now if you selected a different choice in Column A (Choice B, for example), the drop down list on Column B would be a different list. Basically, the list that drops down is dependent on the value you select in Column A.

This has to be able to be done on every line. So if Cell A1 is selected as Choice 1, and Cell A2 is Choice B, the two corresponding cells in Column B will be two separate lists when clicked.

Any help is appreciated.
