Thanks for all the ideas so far, have found a few new ones. What I would like to know is if there is a way to repeat a formula in many sheets ( Jan to Dec) that adds the previous month to the current month giving you a year to date figure. I can go in and do one in each sheet separately , but was hoping that after I select all sheets Jan …hold shift key… Dec , and add a formula that would do this on all sheets at once.

@biswas:

What version(s) of IE is it not working on? I just tested my implementation of it against IE6 and IE8, and it was working properly.

Comment on Excel: After pressing Enter, move selection … by Couzey

Help! My cursor in Excel 2003 moves tens space whenever I push the tab key. I don’t think it is supposed to do that. I want it to only move ONE space again.

@dan + #9: F4 does switch absolute/relative refs in Excel2007. It only works in the cell, while editing the contents (hit F2! I love that! Thanks!). If you just select a cell, F4 does bupkis (or repeats your last action).

–Start typing a formula — “=sum(a2″. when you finish typing the cell reference, hit F4. You should see A2 cycle through the various $ combos. You can do this one cell ref at a time.

–Or, if you have a range — “=sum(a2:g8)” — you can select the range, hit F4, and cycle the whole shebang.

–Oh! and I just tested this on a formula: if you select an entire forumla and hit F4, you’ll switch every cell reference at once! I love the keyboard!

@Aaron, I used a jQuery UI theme, so I'm pretty sure that it's all in the CSS of the theme. At least I'd begin by looking there.

This is great. I’m new to jquery (approx. 1 hr new). This is exactly what I was looking for, however, I’m driving myself crazy trying to figure out how to get the icon on the same row as the column text, instead of right above the text. Any ideas? Also, for a newbie to jquery, like me what tutorials would you recommend? thanks.

There used to be a way to put a return in a cell of Excel – does any one remember the key strokes?
Thanks

Ever any answer to post #9

toggle absolute cell reference f4 key doesnt seem to work in excel 2007.
Is there another shortcut short of having to instal $ into every position needed in the formula string?
