Moving Cursor within same cell
 

When I am working in a cell, how can I set it up so that when I hit 'Enter',
the cursor will move right under the text in the current cell that I am
working in, as it does in Word, instead of always going down to the cell
below the cell that I am working in?

hi
don't think you can do that.
2003toolsoptionsedit tabcheck "move selection after enter"
here you can set which way the cell pointe(curser?) moves i.e. up, down,
left, right.
inside the cell, use the left/right arrow keys to move inside the cell.

Hold down the Alt key before you press enter.
