Default Creating Drop Down List inside a cell?

Hi,
I'm not sure what this will require (programming, macros, etc), but what I
want to do is create a cell that has a drop down list of selectable items (in
this case industries) so that I can create reports on securities. Rather than
type in the industry and industry info every time, I would like to just
select the particular industry and have the rest of the information come up
from there.
I am familiar with the formulas, and can do a lot of the basics, but I need
some direction for this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
