Can you suggest shortcuts that minimise use of the mouse when navigating in a worksheet, and across worksheets? thanks!

Hi Elsa

Thank you for your question; and welcome to the forum.

Here are some keyboard shortcuts you might find useful when navigating around a spreadsheet (you can find these and other shortcuts by searching for keyboard shortcuts in Excel help):

Arrow keys
Move one cell up, down, left, or right.

CTRL+arrow key
Move to the edge of the current data region.

HOME
Move to the beginning of the row.

CTRL+HOME
Move to the beginning of the worksheet.

CTRL+END
Move to the last cell on the worksheet, in the bottom-most used row of the rightmost used column.

PAGE DOWN
Move down one screen.

PAGE UP
Move up one screen.

ALT+PAGE DOWN
Move one screen to the right.

ALT+PAGE UP
Move one screen to the left.

CTRL+BACKSPACE
Scroll to display the active cell.

TAB
Move between unlocked cells on a protected worksheet.

I hope you find these useful.
Amanda

Excel tip:

Shortcuts for working with named ranges in Excel

If you are working with or creating named ranges in your spreadsheets, then you may find the following shortcut keys useful.

- Bring up the Define Names dialogue box on screen by using Ctrl + F3 (instead of going to Insert - Names).

- Create Names from labels you have entered into the spreadsheet by highlighting the labels and related figures, then hold down Shift + Ctrl + F3. You can then choose to create names from the top or bottom rows, or left or right columns.

- Go directly to a named range by hitting the F5 key. The Go To dialogue box will open and display any named ranges in the spreadsheet. Simply select the named range to navigate to it in the spreadsheet.
