Default Programmable Column Sequencing?

I am currently using Excel 2003 and 2007 if necessary.

I would like the ability to configure the excel sheet column sequencing when
I hit the enter key or tab key. Is this possible?? Any suggestions???


Thank You,

G

Default Programmable Column Sequencing?

Can you illustrate what you mean by column sequencing? Do you mean
rearrange the column header designation or do you mean sort the data in the
columns or do you mean move the data in the columns from one column to
another? Examples help.

Default Programmable Column Sequencing?

Adding to JGLWhiz's suggestion...

I would insert a 'program row' (ie: hidden) at the top of the sheet
(Rows(1)), where you can enter the column label for the target cell.
Then use a single statement inside an If construct as follows:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Cells(1, Target.Column) = "" Then
Cells(Target.Row, Cells(1, Target.Column).Text).Select
End If
End Sub

Default Programmable Column Sequencing?

Lets say we have 5 columns (A,B,C,D,E). Normally, When you are in column A,

when you hit the Tab Key it goes to column B, then Column C. I like a way
to rearrange the order. For example if I am in Column A, and hit a tab, I
may want to go to Column D, and then Column E.

I hope that helps.

My suggestion works when you leave edit mode in the cell, however that
happens. That means whether you use the Tab, Enter, or arrow keys it
selects whatever column a label has been entered in the first row. For
example, to have the active cell move to ColD from ColA, enter D in the
first row of ColA. Otherwise, tab behavior will behave normally if
nothing is entered in the first row of any column.
