All keyboard shortcuts for excel - Word и Excel - помощь в работе с программами

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.
A comma sign (,) in a shortcut means that you need to press multiple keys in order.

This article describes the keyboard shortcuts, function keys, and some other common shortcut keys in Excel for Windows.

Notes:

To quickly find a shortcut in this article, you can use the Search. Press Ctrl+F, and then type your search words.
If an action that you use often does not have a shortcut key, you can record a macro to create one. For instructions, go to Automate tasks with the Macro Recorder.

Ribbon keyboard shortcuts

The ribbon groups related options on tabs. For example, on the Home tab, the Number group includes the Number Format option. Press the Alt key to display the ribbon shortcuts, called Key Tips, as letters in small images next to the tabs and options as shown in the image below.

You can combine the Key Tips letters with the Alt key to make shortcuts called Access Keys for the ribbon options. For example, press Alt+H to open the Home tab, and Alt+Q to move to the Tell me or Search field. Press Alt again to see KeyTips for the options for the selected tab.

Depending on the version of Microsoft 365 you are using, the Search text field at the top of the app window might be called Tell Me instead. Both offer a largely similar experience, but some options and search results can vary.

In Office 2013 and Office 2010, most of the old Alt key menu shortcuts still work, too. However, you need to know the full shortcut. For example, press Alt, and then press one of the old menu keys, for example, E (Edit), V (View), I (Insert), and so on. A notification pops up saying you’re using an access key from an earlier version of Microsoft 365. If you know the entire key sequence, go ahead, and use it. If you don’t know the sequence, press Esc and use Key Tips instead.

Use the Access keys for ribbon tabs

To go directly to a tab on the ribbon, press one of the following access keys. Additional tabs might appear depending on your selection in the worksheet.

To do this	Press
Move to the Tell me or Search field on the ribbon and type a search term for assistance or Help content.	Alt+Q, then enter the search term.
Open the File menu.	Alt+F
Open the Home tab and format text and numbers and use the Find tool.	Alt+H
Open the Insert tab and insert PivotTables, charts, add-ins, Sparklines, pictures, shapes, headers, or text boxes.	Alt+N
Open the Page Layout tab and work with themes, page setup, scale, and alignment.	Alt+P
Open the Formulas tab and insert, trace, and customize functions and calculations.	Alt+M
Open the Data tab and connect to, sort, filter, analyze, and work with data.	Alt+A
Open the Review tab and check spelling, add notes and threaded comments, and protect sheets and workbooks.	Alt+R
Open the View tab and preview page breaks and layouts, show and hide gridlines and headings, set zoom magnification, manage windows and panes, and view macros.	Alt+W

Use function key shortcuts

Excel for Mac uses the function keys for common commands, including Copy and Paste. For quick access to these shortcuts, you can change your Apple system preferences, so you don’t have to press the Fn key every time you use a function key shortcut.

Note: Changing system function key preferences affects how the function keys work for your Mac, not just Excel for Mac. After changing this setting, you can still perform the special features printed on a function key. Just press the Fn key. For example, to use the F12 key to change your volume, you would press Fn+F12.

If a function key doesn’t work as you expect it to, press the Fn key in addition to the function key. If you don’t want to press the Fn key each time, you can change your Apple system preferences. For instructions, go to Change function key preferences with the mouse.

Quick tips for using keyboard shortcuts with Excel for the web

To find any command quickly, press Alt+Windows logo key, Q to jump to the Search or Tell Me text field.

Laptop Keyboards

If you are using a laptop keyboard then you might be limited on the some of the shortcuts you can press. Laptop keyboards tend to have smaller keyboards and don’t always contain keys like Page Up, Page Down, Menu, etc.

You might also need to press the Fn (function) key in combination with the function keys F1 to F12. Some laptops have Fn Lock Mode so that you don’t have to press Fn with the the function keys.

Knowing and using Keyboard Shortcuts while using Excel is one of those Basic Excel Skills that can help you save a ton of time every day. There are more than 500 keyboard shortcuts that you can use in Excel but the problem is not all of those can be helpful for you.

That’s why I have listed only the 82 most important keyboard shortcuts that you can learn and use easily. If somehow you are not able to find a keyboard shortcut for the option that you use frequently in your work, you can use the following method to find it.

Here’s the tip: When you press the ALT‌ key Excel shows you the keys that you can use to open the tab from the ribbon.

And when you press a key for a particular tab to open it further shows you the keys to open the options that you have on that tab, so one for further drop-downs.
