Drop down boxes on excel


Question

I’m sure this is a really basic question for pro’s but I’m struggling to find the information online.

I’m creating a excel form which is a questionnaire. I want to create a drop down box where by selecting one of the outcome populated more boxes.

For example the drop down box will have the option for ‘house’ and ‘flat’. If you select ‘house’ it brings up further questions/text boxes relating houses and if you select ‘flat’ it brings up further questions/text boxes about flats 

Can anyone help?

I think the only way you going to do this is building out VBA (Visual Basic for Application) Macros.
