DEAR ALL
For example - data entry is being made and say info is across 10
columns. How to make the cursor/cell active from COL_J to the next
row at COL_A when 'ENTER' is pressed. I can make it go only to right
or down but not down and 10 cells to the left. I have used macro
using ctrl-left arrow etc. But i am sure some better way must be
there. Pls adv

Hi CAPTGNVR

Select the whole range first and instead of the Enter key use the Tab key

Select A1 then Tab across to J1.

Hit ENTER key to move to A2

Alternative method.

Unlock columns A:J then protect the sheet.

Dear Mr Ron, yessss it works and thanks. I really appreciate your
humility--I have seen your name associated with such high end programs
and yet you could devote few lines for my basic query. Thank you SIR.

D/Gord Big thank you for the quick response. All these years I was
using 'home' etc but now found a neat solution. Yesss I have tried as
u said and it works fine. Thanks to you and Mr. Ron.
