IBM Lotus Symphony


Entering Values

Lotus® Symphony™ Spreadsheets can simplify entering data and values into multiple cells. You can change some settings to conform to your preferences.

To enter values into a range of cells manually

There are two features that assist you when you enter a block of data manually.

Area detection for new rows

In the row below a heading row, you can advance from one cell to the next with the Tab key. After you enter the value into the last cell in the current row, press Enter. Lotus Symphony Spreadsheets positions the cursor below the first cell of the current block.

Area selection

Use drag-and-drop to select the area where you want to input values. But start dragging from the last cell of the area and release the mouse button when you have selected the first cell. Now you can start to input values. Always press the Tab key to advance to the next cell. You will not leave the selected area.
