Default How to remember shortcuts in excel?

Always awkward, ie Ctrl+Z is the same as F10 E U
But we don't really call the F10 apporach a shortcut do we ?

Look again at the underscores on the menu items.
Gets complicated when you add your own menus and they
aren't made unique with the underscores. But then they
aren't really the documented keyboard shortcuts, unless you
see the shortcut also written on the menu item. For keyboard shortcuts
see help, or http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/xlshortx2k.htm

Shortcuts keys in Excel are always assigned based on the first letter
of the menu item.
For example. to open a new file the shortcut is CTRL + N, N is the
first letter of the new command.
