Choosing a macro keyboard shortcut

By , Director, Naturally Sales Ltd.


When you are creating macros and assigning shortcut keys, care is needed that the key chosen doesn’t perform another function in Excel, for example CTRL+P is Print, CTRL+C is Copy. 

I find that CTRL+G is a safe bet, or CTRL+L, but did you know that you can expand your range of available keys by including Shift. When you type the key into the box, press Shift at the same time, and you’ll see this indicated. This allows a much wider choice of shortcut keys to execute your macro.
