Excel Facts

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
AFAIK, there is no key press events at the worksheet level, so you need to get creative.
You could adapt very complicated code such as this
or you could use the OnKey approach as shown here:

Note that for the latter, you will need to run the OnKey code at some point - could be workbook activate or open or a command button (button would allow you to cycle the key code on and off while using a sheet). However, you should also run the code that deactivates OnKey at some point, otherwise I suspect it will behave that way for every workbook you open. Again, use a button if you want to turn off the effect before closing the wb, but certainly turn it off (by deactivate or turn off I mean return the Enter key to its default behaviour).

Or you could just skip all the hard work and use mouse or navigation keys.

You could try something like this:
VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error Resume Next
 If Not Intersect(Target, Range("A:ZZ")) Is Nothing Then

    If Target.Row = 2 Then
        Target.Offset(8, 0).Select
    Else
        Target.Offset(-10, 1).Select
    End If
 End If
 
End Sub
