Hi All

I have a sheet that my users enter data on. I have one cell (say A1)
which is a normal, general cell for a number to be entered. The next
cell (say A2) I use to house a combo box with a pull down list of
options for them to select.

What I have noticed is that some users enter the number into A1 and
then try to select a combo box value for A2 without hitting enter
first in A1. That is, they are still in edit mode in A1, they know in
their head that they are done entering information there so they then
try to use the combo box in A2. Excel still thinks they are editing A1
and does not let the combo box take the click. The users (who are not
Excel savy enoough to know to hit enter and get out of edit mode) are
very confused and think the system is broken.

Has anyone else experienced this problem and designed their way out of
it? Is there some way to handle this with events? Any ideas will be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Chrisso
