Hi,
I've got a problem using keyboard to select cells when editing some " sticky" formula. By "sticky", I mean when the arrows don't move you out of the cell you are editing. I found this problem does not exist when starting a new formula, where you can use arrow keys to select other cells. It is a problem for editing existing formula. For example, when you return to re-edit an existing formula like the MIN, once you insert the cursor there, the arrow keys only moves within the cell rather than allowing you to select other cells needed to complete the formula. |

The 'F2' key toggles you between 'sticky' edit and 'moving' edit.
