Default How can I advance to the next field automatically?

I have a template that I have created that is to be used for data entry. I
have a validation on each cell that allows no more than one character. What
I would like happen is once that character is entered, it automatically goes
to the next cell w/o having to use the Enter/Tab/Arrow Rgt keys.

For example, for the last name, there is a field for each alpha of the last
name and right now I have to enter each alpa and then tab to the next field
and type in the second letter of the last name and then so on and so on. I
just want to be able to type continuously and have each alpha placed in the
corresponding column.

I know there has to be a way. Any help would be appreciated.
