<TD WIDTH=43% BGCOLOR="#ffffff">
<P>Entering data into a spreadsheet is an important but time
consuming task. So every keyboard input and mouse click which can be
saved makes it faster to accomplish this task. Furthermore it
reduces input errors and makes this task much more comfortable for
the user. Entering data could be done column or row wise. This
specification improves the row wise method. Therefore the Return key
works like a carriage return-line feed on a type writer and allows
to return to the column where the input started, but just a row
below the current row.</P>
