Many users find that using an external keyboard with keyboard shortcuts for Excel helps them work more efficiently. For users with mobility or vision disabilities, keyboard shortcuts can be easier than using the touchscreen, and are an essential alternative to using a mouse.
Notes:
The shortcuts in this topic refer to the US keyboard layout. Keys for other layouts might not correspond exactly to the keys on a US keyboard.
A plus sign (+) in a shortcut means that you need to press multiple keys at the same time.

[@dariusanderton3760]

a story from a very long time ago I first learned spreadsheets before computer mice were common, and many things were in DOS (before WIndows). Keyboard shortcuts were the only way to do things, along with Function keys. Then when Windows and computer mice came along it seemed like all the young people were using the mouse and right clicking or left clicking on things, and it was just the old people who used the keyboard shortcuts. So I kind of forgot many of the keyboard shortcuts for a few years, but then other people were all saying the shortcuts were faster so I took the effort to learn them again.

[@samueldegraftmintah1226]

Hello Kevin. Could you tell me how to open 2 spreadsheets at the same time in Teams/SharePoint files? If we have to transfer data from one spreadsheet to another, it's very clunky to open, close, open, close to pull and enter data into separate spreadsheets. Thank you so much. Shout out from Redmond! Sharing your info in our company.. We love your lessons.

[@gohst101pubg8]

its helpful , and useful but how I'm going to memorize all of them it will take lots of time to do but better to understand it first and practice 😅

[@terrorsz75]

This was super helpful. Thank you! I actually have one request for a shortcut, I saw it used a few years ago and can't remember what keys to use. So, working if formulas referencing different worksheet there was a shortcut key which is almost like F2 function when the formula cell is selected but it takes you to the actual cell the formula is referencing. Do you know what keys those are?

[@dariusanderton3760]

is it a feature or formula called "goto" , and you click on it and then you are taken to a different page or a different cell on the same page ?

[@terrorsz75]
