If you truly mean "editing" as in editing cell contents, Excel will not record
keystrokes while in "edit" mode. Macros will not run while in "edit" mode.

If you just mean "editing" in general as in copying/pasting/moving
data/entering data etc. you can use the Macro Recorder as Dean suggests.

For the first scenario, there may be third-party apps but I am unaware of any.

unsuccessfully, and nobody else seemed to know why it wouldn't work.

This is one capability of Lotus that I wish Excel had provided. It
isn't very sophisticated, but if you just want to clean up data or do
the same things to a lot of cells using a macro, a quick recorder
capability is very nice. Excel is so strong in so many areas, I'm
surprised Microsoft neglected this.

Are their any aftermarket utilities that do this?
