I have nearly run out of Shortcut Keys
Greetings! In Excel VBA help it says: "To assign a CTRL combination shortcut
key to run the macro, in the Shortcut key box, type any lowercase letter or uppercase letter that you want to use. Note The shortcut key will override any equivalent default Excel shortcut key while the workbook that contains the macro is open. For a list of CTRL combination shortcut keys that are already assigned in Excel, see Excel shortcut and function keys." Greetings! I have nearly run out of possible Shortcut keys. The only unused one is CTRL+SHIFT+J. It is hard to believe that due to our English alphabet only having 26 letters, we are limited to 52 shortcut keys, ten of the lower case ones already assigned by Excel or Windows. Now that I have an important use for CTRL+SHIFT+J, how am I to proceed when eventually I need another Shortcut key. Thanks in advance for your help, suggestions, comments, etc. May you have a most blessed day! Sincerely, Michael Fitzpatrick -- May you have a most blessed day! Sincerely, Michael Fitzpatrick |

Take a look at the OnKey statement. This allows you to assign a procedure to any key with any combinations of CTRL, SHIFT, and ALT.

Thanks Chip. Another question. Does using OnKey slow down processing? Thanks!
