uh, what's does the next cell mean?

To the right until you get to a certain column, then back to column A?
Or down a row?

One way is to build a tiny userform with just a textbox on it.

Add this code to the userform module:

Option Explicit
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal KeyAscii As MSForms.ReturnInteger)

Select Case KeyAscii
Case 48 To 57 'Numbers 0-9
With ActiveCell
.Value = Chr(KeyAscii)
If .Column = 3 Then
.Offset(1, -2).Activate
Else
.Offset(0, 1).Activate
End If
End With
End Select
KeyAscii = 0
TextBox1.Value = ""

End Sub

Then add this to a general module to show the form:
Option Explicit
Sub testme01()
Cells(ActiveCell.Row, 1).Activate
UserForm1.Show
End Sub


I always start in column A and use A:C.
