Regarding Brian's suggestion: you can configure your document so that ENTER
moves the cursor right instead of down.

I am editing a calc file, and have to change data in discontinuous cells
row by row.

In order to avoid changing data of another row, I follow the steps for
each:
1. edit data in one cell, e.g. C111
2. highlight the whole row manually to help me to locate the next cell
that need modify, e.g. F111

4. repeat highlight then select till this row finished.

It will be helpful if the row can be highlighted automatically when I
focus or edit a cell...


Here's a workaround: when you have finished editing the first cell in a
row, instead of confirming your edit by pressing Enter, press right-arrow.
 This confirms the editing and moves focus along in the same row.  Press
right-arrow repeatedly until you reach the next cell to be edited. Repeat
as necessary.

If you wish, you can also confirm each edit by pressing the green Accept
tick mark next to the Input Line.  This confirms the edit without moving
focus away from the cell being edited, thus again keeping focus in the same
row.  Then use right-arrow as before.

I trust this helps.
