I've been transcribing some VERY old logs into DXB and then to LoTW.
Lots of typing.
I created a special Column format with just the info I need to upload to LoTW.

I had one small problem.
After entering the callsign I wish to go directly to the TIME field of the next 
entry.
Hitting return just advances to each field and eventually gets me there.
But that's time consuming and I have to watch the screen.
Hitting a down arrow and two left arrows gets me there.
But that means taking my fingers off the home keys as I can't quite reach the 
arrow keys.
Inadvertently I'd miss and not notice as I'm looking and trying to decipher the 
log page
scribbling.

I found a small macro program (not free), that allowed me to remap the "program 
open" key
on my Microsoft style keyboard. It's the key between the right CTR and Windows 
keys.

I made a macro that allows me to do a DOWN, LEFT, LEFT, which returns me to the 
TIME field
to enter the next log line info.

The program can be found at  www.fadsoft.com
