I just set up 4 non-contiguous cells as unlocked, then protected the sheet,
and found that the tab key *does* move between the 4 available cells. It
does so from left to right, then down to the next row and left to right
again. B1, E1, then down to B3, E3. Sort of the same way we read text. Do
you need the movement to happen in a pattern other than that one?
