Alternating between worksheets
Is there a shortcut to quickly alternate between worksheets that aren't next
to each other? (e.g. similar to using ALT + TAB to alternate between windows?) Thanks. |

Alternating between worksheets
Adrian,
If you do Window New Window, it will open a second window for the same file. Then you can set each window to a different sheet in the file. If you have the "Windows in Taskbar" (Tools Options... View tab Show section (first section)) setting turned on, then you can user the [Alt] + [Tab] to switch between the 2. Keep in mind, these instructions are for XL 2002 & 2003. Don't know 2007 yet. Search Help for "Windows in Taskbar". HTH, Conan "Adrian" wrote in message ... Is there a shortcut to quickly alternate between worksheets that aren't next to each other?

Alternating between worksheets
hi
you can right click on the sheet navigator in the lower left corner of the sheet. you will get a pop up showing all your sheets. clck one to go to it. if you have more than 15? sheets, there will be a "more sheets" options. click that and you get a scrollable "text box?" with all of your sheets. you can also do the ctlr+page up and ctrl+ page down like alt+tab to navigate through the sheets. may not apply to 2007. still stuck on xp here and i hear they have change A LOT!

I can't seem to find the navigator. What does the icon look like?

Adrian,
It is just to the left of the sheet tabs. There is 4 small buttons that look kinda like previous track, play in reverse (if there was such a thing), play, and next track on a CD/DVD player.

Adrian,
HTH = Hope this helps. When ever I come across acronyms I don't know, I go to acronymfinder.com to look them up (hopefully I spelled "acronym" correctly).

Alternating between worksheets
Hi FSt1,
I hope you're still watching this thread. What i found in 2007 is that this works ~until~ you put protection on the worksheet, after that, Excel ignores the control key and simply pages up or down. Why oh why did they muck this up. I used this key combos ALL the time.
