    Default cursor postion

    Hey,

    Wondering if there is a way to do this ...

    I have a workbook with 11 tabs - Lets say they are named 1 thru 11

    After entering data into a row on tab 1 (or any tab) and then I go to tab 5 (or any tab)

    I would like the cursor postion to high light the 1st empty blank cell in coulmn B on tab 1 or any tab I just left.

    Clear as mud?

    Thanks.

    The above works per say ...

    Data starts at B5 ... lets say I have items filled up to B10 ...

    I click next tab and go back the cursor goes to B5.

    Is there a way to tweak it to look for 1st blank cell in B ?

    The above did not seem to move the cursor at all.

    Go back to 1st tab and cursor goes to B1
