Also, the list is “ searchable” using the standard search function in your standard PDF reader application. In addition, each shortcut clearly shows the Mac and Windows version of the shortcut key combination. In this way, the user also has the information available offline, even when there is no smooth internet connection available ( (or none at all … for example, while working on a workbook during a flight). That is why I have spent some time expanding the collected information for other use cases and have made an overview in a PDF format that can be downloaded here (you can find that overview at the very bottom of this article). Most of the information I found online was very much centered around the assumption that everyone uses a US version of Excel with a “US keyboard” (QWERTY) as the input mechanism.

Or they have an English version of the software but use an AZERTY (or some other European) keyboard layout. For example, they use Excel on a Mac at home, while at work they use Windows (or vice versa). Quite a few Excel users (including several readers of my articles) use the program with a mix of settings. When I went looking for good information about the existing Excel shortcuts a while ago, I came to the conclusion (like many others) that there is a lot to be found on the Internet about this … which in most cases (that I came across anyway) was fairly cumbersome to use (for example, for each shortcut several screens had to be visited on a website in order to find a bit more details about the objective and context in addition to the key combination of the shortcut).
