Re: How to add a "tab" in Excel

At 12:19a -0500 02/12/2004, email@hidden didst inscribe upon an electronic papyrus:

I am beginning to learn applescript and have just recorded my first script in
Excel. I am attempting to type text into adjacent cells. When I record the
script, it begins by selecting the "active cell". Then, when I tab to the next
cell to the right, the reference is to a specific cell in the spreadsheet, as a row and column, not as for instance "tab to the next cell to the right." How
do I program applescript to change to a cell relative to the first active
cell, rather than referring to an absolute position in the spreadsheet?

Change the reference from "RyCx" to "RC[1]".

Eventually, I may want to navigate up or down, to the left or right of any given cell where I am working.

Up 1: R[-1]C
Down 1: R[1]C
Left 1: RC[-1]
Right 1: RC[1]

See basic Excel docs about addressing cells.
