    How to change the behaviour of the "Enter" key

    I have a spreadsheet with 4 columns. Is it possible to reprogram the "Enter" key so that when I press it, the cursor will move down a row and to the first column?
    I've changed the options so it moves down a row but how can I make it also move to the first column.

    Thanks in advance!

    When you enter data into a row and use the tab key to go to the next column, pressing the Enter key on the last field of the row will return you to the column where you started your data entry.

    It's a matter of learning and remembering rather than programming ....

    Ok. I knew about the Tab key but I don't use all the columns for each row. I always have an entry for the first column but I may only use column 2 and then need to go to the next row where I put an entry and then tab to column 4 and so on.
    I would like to just be able to press the "Enter" key to move me to the first column of the next row from wherever I'm presently at.

    Regards
