Shortcut for copying the cell above
 

I often need to copy the cell above the one I need to enter data in, but
rather than selecting the cell above and pressing Ctrl+C then Ctrl+V in the
cell below, is there a keyboard shortcut to copy the data in the cell above
whilst I am still in the blank cell? Or how do I create a macro to do this?

Try
Ctrl + "

In the cell below the cell you want to copy, press Ctrl+' (apostrophe). That
copies the cell above it.

Ctrl and ' (single quote)

FYI, same thing works in Access (when in a datasheet view) but not in Word
tables.
