I'm trying to distribute a form that has only 5 unlocked cells, four in row
10 ( columns A,B,C,D ) and one in row 20 ( Column A )

My intention is that the user will fill the 4 cells in row 10, and then
later fill the cell in row 20.

By default, when the user hits Enter in A10, the cursor jumps DOWN to A20.
I know I can set the TOOLS/OPTION/EDIT/MOVE DIRECTION to RIGHT, and that
solves the problem , BUT ONLY IN MY COMPUTER.

Is it possible to save that option in the spreadsheet, so that when the user
loads the spreadsheet in HIS computer, the "right" ( excuse the pun ) option
is already selected for him.

thanks for your help

With sheet protection enabled and those 5 cells unlocked.

Instruct user to hit the TAB key rather than the ENTER key.

OR if users insist on the ENTER key, use event code that tracks to the cells
in the order you want.

Sample code......

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Select Case Target.Address
Case "$A$10"
Range("B10").Select
Case "$B$10"
Range("C10").Select
Case "$C$10"
Range("D10").Select
Case "$D$10"
Range("A20").Select
End Select
End Sub

Right-click on the sheet tab and "View Code"

Copy/paste the above into that module.
