Default I want Excel to stop auto-moving my cursor when I hit enter.

(Excel 2003) I have set the cursor to move "down" when I hit enter. But
Excel keeps trying to figure out where I want the cursor to be and sometimes
moves 3 or 4 spaces over, depending on where the other entries on the page
is. How do I turn off the auto feature? Thanks.

Click TOOLS, select OPTIONS, click the EDIT tab in the dialog box and turn
off the check box that says "Move Selection after Enter"

That action results in the cursor not moving after I hit enter. I wish the
cursor to move down one block after I hit enter.

Hi, this would be great for me to use, is there a keyboard shortcut to
use so i can easily alternate between the options of it going right or
down?
