David, Here is one solution for entering vector in column form from the keyboard. Use MakeExpression to interpret you input. MakeExpression[GridBox[{ {a_}, {b_}, {c_} }],StandardForm]:= MakeExpression[RowBox[{"{", RowBox[{a, ",", b, ",", c}], "}"}],StandardForm] Then (this is suppose to be in column form) 1 2 3 gives {1,2,3} I am sending you a notebook which illustrates this and other aspects of your question in more detail.
