Default change direction when pressing enter

If the only thing you're doing is entering data, simply use the arrow keys
instead of <Enter.

To change the setting permanently, I don't believe there is a "toggle"
shortcut. You could write a short macro using the
MoveAfterReturnDirection
property:

Application.MoveAfterReturnDirection = xlToRight

And through the use of input boxes, or different macros w/ assigned
shortcut
keys, create your own "toggle".

After I have selected "after pressing enter - move selection", and I
select
"Down".
Are there any Keyboard shortcuts that will toggle the selection to
either
right, up, or left while I am working in the spreadsheet? I know how
to do
this in excel options, but was looking for a quicker way to do it.
Thanks
for your help!

Shift+Enter will change active cell to one above (assuming default is
one
below)

If only 1 cell is selected, Ctrl+Enter will not move active cell (if
multiple cells are selected and you press Ctrl+Enter, the value
inputed into
active cell will be applied to all cells within selection).

And of course, Tab & Shift+Tab move cell to right/left.
