Using the Keyboard for Some Highlighting Fun

Here’s another quick key combination you can use in MS Excel!

This one allows you to highlight an entire row or column with just two keys and no mouse. Here’s how:

• Ctrl + Spacebar will highlight the column of the cell currently selected.
  
  
• Shift + Spacebar will highlight the row of the cell currently selected.

You can then combine this information with the Shift + Arrow keys to highlight several rows or columns.

There you have it. Just a couple more tricks to add to your ever growing list of keyboard shortcuts.

Happy highlighting, everyone!
