auto shift down a cell

[peekster]

Is it possible to automatically shift down a cell with no key stroke after
entering 4 digits into a cell. And if so can all the cells be formatted to do
this. Thanks

No.

What you can do is set data validation to allow only 4 characters in a cell

Data|Validation then set it to Number of max value 9999 or text length 4
characters.

To move down after enter try

Tools|Options|Edit check move selection after enter and select 'down' from
the dropdown.

It can't be done if the user hasn't hit enter, however naturally when
user hits enter the cursor usually moves down one row, if you only wan
to allow a 4 digit number then use DATA>VALIDATION>TEXT LENGTH>EQUA
TO>
