your cell is formated to display a pop up, letting you choose one of many items in the provided list. You dont type directly into that cell.


To change the options for those cells, you need to select the cell you want to change, then tap the wrench icon, then Format at the top of the screen. You should see "Pop-up menu" checked. tap the little circled "i" and you will see the options you can pick from, edit this list.
