    radio button? menu box?

    I need something and I don't even know what it's called

    I write "northern hemisphere" or "southern hemisphere".

    I'd like a cell that will select one of these by a mouse click instead of having to type out the whole thing. Not only would it be a time saver, it will reduce the errors because then I only have those two choices.
