- If you click the Enter button on the Formula Bar, the cell you typed in remains active. 
Example (Answers may vary): I want to edit a specific cell, so I pull up the cell's data in the Formula Bar. When I press Enter, the cell I was working in remains active so that I can see that my change was made.

- If you press the Enter key, the cell below the cell you typed in becomes active.
Example (Answers may vary): I am entering a list of numbers in a spreadsheet. I choose to use the Enter key as then it automatically brings me down to the next cell in the column, where I type the next entry.

- If you press the Tab key, the cell to the right of the cell you typed in becomes active.
Example (Answers may vary): I am entering data in a row. I choose to use the Tab key as then it automatically takes me to the cell to the right so I can enter the next item in the row.
