In OpenOffice Calc, when I type in a cell, the program can sometimes autocomplete the information from earlier rows in the same column. I can hit Enter to accept the completion and move to the next row. How can I accept the current completion but stay in the same cell, with my cursor behind the word that was autocompleted?

Go to tools / options / open office.org Calc / general :under 'input settings' uncheck "Press enter to move selection"

Not one of their better wording examples I fear: "move selection" really means "move the cursor to a new cell", and there are options as to which way it moves.

One possibility is to press F2.
