Highlighting Entire Row without the Mouse
Suppose my cursor is in cell A3...
And I wish to select the entire ROW 3... Obviously, I can click the mouse over to the left where it says 3 (meaning the row #)... Then, the entire row is highlighted! If, I hold down the 'shift' key, I can move the cursor with the left, right, up, and down keys any where I want it to go...highlighting all the cells I pass through... BUT I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO MOVE TO THE LEFT OF COLUMN 1...i.e. thus highlighting the entire row without using the mouse?? Can someone please help me? Thanks, FLKulchar |

Be precise. Ctrl+Shift+arrow key does not select all row. It only selects
from active cell until the cell which is not empty. -- R. Khoshravan Please click "Yes" if it is helpful. "Suleman Peerzade" wrote: Sorry its not left key but right scroll arrow key.
