Default Jump to next cell after selecting from drop down list

Thanks for the response Otto.

What I meant is...for example: if in cell B5 there is a drop down menu to
select from. I want to be able to select from that drop down in B5, then
have cell B6 automatically come up as another cell that I can select from the
same pull down menu as B5. I would like for this to occur when there is an
entry already in B6. So, essentially I want to create another row to select
from the pull down menu if there is already an entry in that next row,. May
be if I explain what I mean..

I have a timesheet that I am working on. But for a single day, I may be able
to charge several job codes, however, the number of job codes that I can
enter per day may vary, depending on the work that needs to be done.

So for example:
Monday 11/06/06: Administrative 2.0 hours, Customer 6.0 hours
Tuesday 11/07/06: Adminsitrative 3.0 hours, Customer 3.0 hours, Company 2.0
hours

What you say is a little confusing. When you say "the next row", do you
mean the next item in the pull down menu, or the row below the row that has
the pull down menu?
In other words, if the pull down cell is, say, B5, when you click on an item
in the pull down menu, do you want the active cell to be B6?
If this is what you want, it will require a small VBA macro.
Please post back and clarify what you want. HTH Otto

Does anyone know how I can setup a pull down menu, select an item from
that
pull down menu, and have Excel automatically go to the next row? AND, if
there is a value already in that next row, how can I have Excel
automatically
enter a new row so that I can continue selecting from the pull down?

Thank you!!
