How do I set a rule for moving one cell down + one left in Excel?

N

Neuroner

The time for recounting the storage in my office!

About 1300 different products with barcodes. I want to use a mobile device
with pocket EXcel, and need the A coloumn to jump one cell to the right once
it has a value. In coloum B i want to input the number of products in stock.

Once I key in an integer there, I want the excel sheet to jump once cell down
and once cell left, in order to be in coloum A - ready for me to scan the next
barcode.

How do I set this up?

I don't think that you can achieve that kind of functionality wit
Pocket Excel. It'll be hard enough with Excel for Windows, requirin
VBA, but that won't run on Pocket XL, AFAIK

A tiny trick:

1. type something in A1
2. touch TAB to move to B1
3. type in B1
4. touch ENTER

You will snap down to A2 for the next entry!!

You have to install this change event sub for that:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Cells(Target.Row + Target.Column - 1, 3 - Target.Column).Select
End Sub

Post if you need help to install it!

Thank you very much Stefi

The sub did the trick! I'll get going on implementing this on the sheet
I'm using on the pocket excel to see if it'll run there too. This will save
us alot of trouble should it all work as intended.

Thanks again ;)
