Hello,

I need a way to make the behaviour of a table similar to an Excel table. In
Excel one can move from one column to the next using the TAB key and / or
the arrow keys. Also one can move one row up or down using the arrow keys.
How can I achieve this using an SWT table? Now I can only move to another
tabe using the mouse :-(.

Any help is appreciated, thanks

Mr. Burns
