Uhhh...move your cursor to the second row, first column and click once. Or
use the arrow keys.

I am typine a 20 column table. How do I type in the first column and
first row and return to the first column second row below without
tabbing all the way across the 20 columnws?

First add a bunch of empty rows to the table. When the cursor is at the end
of the text in the first cell, press the down arrow key to go to the next
row in the same column.

If you have empty rows left over when you've typed all the data, select them
and click Table > Delete > Rows.
