It should work if set up the way Gord Dibben has instructed. That's about
the only way I know to skip cells without resorting to VB code (or clicking
with a mouse or entering directly into the Name Box - I mention those to keep
others from reminding me that those options exist).

Can you live with sheet protection?

Select the range for users to enter data.......say A1:B20

FormatCellsProtectionUncheck "locked" options.

ToolsProtectionProtect SheetUncheck "select locked cells" and OK

With ENTER key set to move down start entering in A1.

Alternative is to use a named range.

Again with range to A1:B20, select A2 then CTRL and select A20 then B1:B20 then
A1 last

InsertNameDefine. Give your range a name like MyRange

In Nmaebox select MyRange and start typing and ENTERing

I have created an Excel Form that has two different columns of "blanks" and I
am trying to set it up for the user to go down one column and then down the
second column. I would prefer the cursor to not go 'left - to right'.
Any suggestions?
