Carriage return problem

[ozone64]

Hi,

I am trying to get Excel to automatically go to the beginning cell of the next row. I have a worksheet that is 5 columns wide. When the last column e.g. E10 has data in it, I want to to automatically go to A11 for data input. Any help would be great.

thanks

Hi,

In the code module for the worksheet you are working on, put the
following in the worksheet_change event......

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)

If Target.Column <= 4 Then Cells(Target.Row, Target.Column + 1).Select
If Target.Column = 5 Then Cells(Target.Row + 1, 1).Select

End Sub

This moves one cell to the right for the first 4 cols, then 1 row down and to col A when you enter in col E. In all other columns, it is whatever Excel is set to after a change.

Bye,
Jay

Hi ozone64:
I realize that you asked for amacro solution, and Jay has provided one above.
There ias a non-macro solution that also might be of interest here ...
If you data entry cells are unlocked, and the worksheet is protected, then using the TAB key, after you TAB into E10, it will automatically into A11.
