Description andmalc 2003-05-04 03:36:18 UTC
In Excel, either the arrow keys or the tab key accepts an auto-completion.  In
Calc, only the arrow keys do this.  The tab key is preferable because it can be
pressed without moving the hands from typing position.  

Also, this key mapping will be expected by Excel users.
