    Automatically move cells down after entry?

    Hello,

    Is there a way to automatically move cells down after I entered data in it? This way I do not have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the list to add new data. It would be greatly appreciated if this is explained to me if this is possible!

    Thanks in Advance.

    Alternative solution,
    Use 'CTRL & arrow down' to go to the bottom of the list.

    You would need to use VBA. Would you want the whole row moved down or only the contents of that column?

    Alternately, there are these shortcuts
    ALT Down Arrow will move you to the bottom of the column (if there are no blanks)
    ALT + END will move you to lower right corner of your used region (bottom right of your data)
    You can enter a specific cell into the name box and hit enter and it takes you to that cell
    Unlike MS Word, Excel will open up to where you left the active cell so it should open up to the last cell you filled.

    substitute commas with semi-colons if your region settings requires

    Yes I would like the whole row moved down. I would prefer to use a VBA instead of the shortcuts

    Assuming the cell that you want to trigger this is cell B3

    Right click on the tab and "View Code"
    Paste this code into the large text box and close the window

    Does that work for you?
