Cell editing macro

I am trying to create a macro that will edit characters out of a cell, then tab over to the next cell. The editing is done with "Home" "Delete" "End" and several "Backspace" keystrokes. The macro I have written fixes the first cell correctly. The problem is the contents of the first cell overwrite the contents of the next cell when the macro is fired. I understand "Relative Reference", and I am using it, but that is not the problem.... Thanks for your help...
