I am trying to make a macro that enters a specific price
(ie: $50.00) and after this to have the next selected
cell
be the next empty cell down at the beginning of the row.
Right now when I make the macro the cursor always
returns
to the specific cell it went to before (ie: B4). I
don't
understand why it returns to that specific cell b/c it's
not set up as an absolute cell reference.

Help!

Valerie,

Post a copy of your macro and be a little more specific
in your description:
which cell gets the $50.00 and which cell you want to go
to.
example: C4 gets $50.00 goto A5
C5 gets $50.00 goto A6
Sounds like you have Range("B4").Select in your code.

Steve,
You are correct with your example. Here is a copy of the
macro I end up with.

Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
' Und Inspect Fee $24.50
'
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+j
'
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "24.5"
Range("B4").Select
End Sub

Thanks for any help.

like this?

Option Explicit

Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
' Und Inspect Fee $24.50
'
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+j
'
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "24.5"
Cells(ActiveCell.Row + 1, 1).Select
End Sub
