Thumbs up Answer: Is there a shortcut key for subscript or superscript in excel?

Yes, there are shortcut keys for subscript and superscript in Excel. Here's how to use them:
  1. Subscript: To subscript a character or a group of characters, select the characters you want to subscript and press "Ctrl" + "1". This will open the "Format Cells" dialog box. Click on the "Font" tab and check the "Subscript" box. Click "OK" to apply the subscript formatting.
  2. Superscript: To superscript a character or a group of characters, select the characters you want to superscript and press "Ctrl" + "1". This will open the "Format Cells" dialog box. Click on the "Font" tab and check the "Superscript" box. Click "OK" to apply the superscript formatting.

Alternatively, you can use the following shortcut keys:

- Subscript: "Ctrl" + "="
- Superscript: "Ctrl" + "Shift" + "="

These shortcut keys work in both Excel for Windows and Excel for Mac.

Not directly that I'm aware of -- unless you've got some font that
supplies them.

However you can type x2, for example, then go back and highlight the 2,
then from the format cell panel you can tell it to make that a
superscript, etc.
