change of cell upon cell change
 

I am looking for a way to for an cell in Excel to automatically change to the
next cell one row below, upon population of the cell. I want to scan a
barcode into a cell and without hitting enter, have the cell automatically
move to the next cell and be ready to recieve another scanned barcode. Thank
you,

Without hitting enter? If this is the case, it will still be in edit mode,
so it can't go anywhere (unless you exit some other way such as tab).

Bill,

Most scanners can be configured to append a terminating character (such
as enter or tab) to each scanned barcode. Take a look at your scanner
documentation on how to enable that.
