Drop down - multiple choices within the fields
Mel's example is great if you want to create a training within Storyline itself. If you're looking to demonstrate the use of an outside program (your Excel example comes to mind), you might want to use the Record Screen feature to create a demonstrative video or even a step-by-step video where the user clicks through the guided process. I created a spreadsheet similar to what you outlined with multiple fields, and four drop-down options for each:
Within your Storyline project do the following:
1) New Slide
2) Insert Tab, click Record Screen
3) Just select your spreadsheet, size the window (or the spreadsheet) as needed, and set your record options
4) Record the step-by-step of clicking into the spreadsheet and selecting the values
5) When prompted to insert choose "Video on a single slide" (straight vid viewing) or "Step-by-step slides" which gives you the ability to let the user click through the video just as you did to try it on their own.
In the latter option, you'll see some pretty cool stuff: Storyline automatically creates hotspots and triggers to guide the user to do exactly what was done in the video, including feedback to let them know they're in the right place, and even provide feedback if they get it wrong!
