Cursor Movement In Teams Excel Sheet

Does anyone know how to change the direction the cursor moves in a Excel spreadsheet in Teams? I cannot find the option to change it from moving down to the next cell, to moving to the right to the next cell. I know how to change this in Excel itself, but haven't been able to locate this option within Teams. This is very annoying when trying to populate a sheet where you input information across a row.

    Select the File tab of the ribbon to open the File menu. Select Options in the menu to open Excel Options. Select Advanced in the left-hand pane of the dialog box. In the Editing Options section, go to After pressing Enter, move selection in the right-hand pane.

      I am in a similar position to the people already replying to this topic, but under File > Options I only have Regional Settings.
      I find the cursor behaviour pretty annoying, it's something of a user preference. So... why can't we change it?

        DWilson_Horr   I am in the same position as you - seeing regional settings under Options.  Downward cursor movement is annoying and slows me down.

      I cannot find how to do this either. Like David has said, there is no "Options" tab under the File tab in Teams. Please advise Lewis-H
