I am using Excel 2003.  I want to make 3 colums, and use my tab key to go
back to each one.  Such as...when I'm done typing in column 3, I'd like to
tab back to column 1 and start typing again.  
Thanks for any help.

Couple of ways to do this.

1.  Select columns A:C and format>cells>protection.  Uncheck "locked" and OK

Then Tools>Protection>Protect Sheet.  Only A:C will accept entries in a left to
right top to bottom order.

2.  Without protection........

Enter something in A1 then Tab to B1, enter something in B1 then Tab to C1.
Enter something in C1 then hit ENTER key to go to A2.
