I need to TAB through a combination of ComboBox(es) and cells in my worksheet. I have written the following code to jump from a ComboBox to a ComboBox:

Code:
Private Sub ComboBox1_KeyDown (ByValKeyCode As MSForms.ReturnInteger, ByVal Shift as Integer)
If KeyCode = 9 Then ComboBox2.Activate
End Sub
I also write a code to jump from a CELL to a ComboBox (in some places it is needed). Looks like this:

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal TargetAsRange)
If Target.Address = "$A$1" Then
ActiveSheet.ComboBox1.Activate
End If
End Sub

When you put these two codes side-by-side, you can imagine jumping from Cell A1, to Combobox1, to Combobox2. Well, I have a column from D9 to D208 with 5 ComboBoxes next to each cell, and I need to flow through them all by hitting TAB. I've ended up typing it out manually, but is there a way to make one short command which will loop through all of these without writing 2000+ lines of code?

Also, any input on TabStop property of a combobox? Maybe there's a simpler solution
