Multiple column scroll

I have researched for 2 days but cannot locate a solution. I have
spreadsheet where I have frozen the first 2 columns and the first tw
rows. To the right are columns of data in pairs. 2 columns represent
day and data is entered across both columns. We are having trouble wit
multiple users entering data across the wrong 2 columns and splittin
days. I want to be able to use the scroll bar and have the spreadshee
advance 2 columns instead of the standard 1 to keep the days in pairs.
am at a loss

Just a thought

Have you considered color-coding each pair of columns, thus indicating
to the user that they represent the same grouping.

You can scroll left/right one screen at a time using PgUp/PgDn while
holding down the *Alt* key. (PgUp=left; PgDn=right)

Yes, I have thought if exactly that, color coding, as well as adding
small grayed-out column for separation. I even deleted the scroll ba
and set up the tab button to page across, which should work depending o
resolution settings. I think resolution can be controlled by commonizin
the tablets used for data entry. However, I am told there is a way t
set it up for the scroll bar to advance 2 columns instead of the defaul
1. I'm puzzled. I don't give up easily but I'm throwing in the towel
Thanks anyway!!!

Why not just ask whomever told you this to explain how to do it?

Ha! He only says he "knows" there is a solution, but he has no idea wha
it is.
