Default tabbing order

I am setting up a cost sheet for my billing department and would like to set
up a tabbing order specific to the order of data entry. for instance, data
needs to be entered into C8,D8,D10 - Tnen skip down to, C12,D12,D14- Then
down to, B32,C32 etc. Can someone please help?

Default tabbing order

As long as you follow the convention of left - right, then top - bottom
(which it looks like you do), you can achieve this affect by making those
cells unprotected and then protecting the sheet, with the option of selecting
locked cells turned off.

Couple of methods.

You may instead want to use VBA code to step through cells in order.

Post back if that appeals.
