When you say get the home key to "work", do you mean have it return the
active cell to A1?

Click on the Office Button (top-left of screen)
Click on the "Excel Options" button (at the bottom of the menu)
Select the "Advanced" Tab on the left
Scoll down to the bottom of the page
Look for the section "Lotus Compatibility"
Check the "Transition Navigation Keys" checkbox
Click OK

Hi,

Since you are using Excel why not learn Excel's command for moving to cell
A1? Ctrl+Home.

In Excel Home moves the cursor to the first cell of the current row -
sometimes useful. And Ctrl+Home move to the top left corner of the
spreadsheet - the equivalent of the Lotus 1-2-3 Home key.

You should start using the Excel keyboard shortcut because it works the same
in Word, Access, MS Project and some places in PowerPoint. And in those
programs you can change to 1-2-3 equivalents.

When you turn transision keys on you also change the behavior of other keys:
1-2-3 Excel
Tab Alt+PgDn
Shift+Tab Alt+PgUp
Ctrl+Home Home
Home Ctrl+Home

--
If this helps, please click the Yes button

Cheers,
Shane Devenshire
