entering data in a row and then tabbing to the next row
I am using Excel 2003. I would like to enter my data from A-L and then press
tab and be in the next row below to start entering data again. I have my own company and am trying to enter customers contact info. It is inconvenient for me to alway use my mouse to go back to the next row and I know I have set this up before, but can not remember how I did it. Please help. |

Unlock the cells you want to use, iowselect cols A:L, click on Format, Cells,
Protection, and untick Locked. Protect your worksheet, and untick the option to select locked cells. If you want to rather use <ENTER to move to the next cell, then click on Tools, Options, select the Edit tab, and change Move selection after enter to Right. Once you press <ENTER, or then <TAB in Col L, you will move to col A in the next row. -- HTH Kassie Replace xxx with hotmail "Paradisegems" wrote: I am using Excel 2003.
