How do I skip columns when tabbing in Exce?
 
How do I configure a spreadsheet to skip columns when I am tabbing across for
data entry?

Thank you

Select the columns you want to tab to and then do
formatCells...protectionlocked - uncheck

Now go to ToolsProtectionProtect sheet...

It will now only tab to the unlocked cells

Protect the columns then protect the sheet.

For more details see Bob Phillips' site.
