It isn't totally clear what you want, but there is no inherent support for
moving focus from a control toolbox combobox to a worksheet cell by hitting
the enter key.

See this discussion by Rob Bovey on tabbing between controls on a worksheet.
It isn't what you want, but you should be able to use the same technique to
capture the enter key and perform the action that you want.

Oh this one is an embarassing question. From it's nature it reeks of
obvious. I have a feeling I can't see the forest in front of me for my
nose has treebark up it from being burried in a knothole.

"We" are in a combobox typing. I like what has been typed, so I wish to
select it, regardless of whether it was from the selection list or a new
entry. I can simply click another field to do so. I want the <Enter key
to do pretty much the same, moving focus to another field from the
control to a spreadsheet cell. The control is on the sheet, not on a
separate form. I tried toggling Tools: Options: Edit: Move Selection to
on, but that didn't do beans. What am I completely missing here?
Whenever I press <Enter, it just stares back at me doing nothing.

I have been holding off asking this question for a month out of
embarrassment, but it's time to take the plunge.
