To assign/re-assign shortcuts:
ALT-F8 Options

(I like CNTRL-e and CNTRL-f because I use CNTRL-c for copy)

To get that relative button:

View Toolbars Visual Basic
BEFORE you start recording

On this topic, I have no icon my my Visual Basic toolbar that seems to
control relative addressing. Am I missing something? Thanks, James

Hi James

you may need the Stop Recording Toolbar as well.

Okay, thanks! I will check on that. Relative addressing sounds like a
really bad idea to me. Guess it works for some people. I tend to like
things to be absolute (which is probably why I like Excel to begin with!).
But I don't want to miss out on anything!

James

It's not so much personal preference that should determine whether you use
absolute or relative addressing; it should be the application requirements.
It is quite typical to have both code and worksheet functions that make a use
of a combination of both addressing methods. Consider:
=VLOOKUP(A1,'Sheet2'!$A$5:$AA$10000,13,False)
The table needs to be absolutely addressed so that when the formula is
filled down the sheet, that lookup table reference doesn't change, but
similarly, the item to be looked up, in A1 initially, needs to be relatively
addressed so that the row reference will increase as the formula is filled
down the sheet.

Function quite often dictates design.
