I'm constantly gathering information about Excel shortcuts and hotkeys. Some time ago I started documenting and writing down (what is growing to be) an extremely comprehensive list of Excel shortcuts and hotkeys.
Now, you can get the most recent version of this Cheat Sheet for free. The current version includes more than 350 entries/shortcuts.
I update this list of keyboard shortcuts from time to time. If you want to learn more about keyboard shortcuts, including how to find them and how to create custom shortcuts, please refer to this blog post.
Why am I sharing this with you?
I created Power Spreadsheets to share what I'm constantly learning about Excel. I hope that this Cheat Sheet helps you improve your Excel skills and become even more efficient and productive.
This PDF Cheat Sheet is free. Just enter your email address below to get access to Excel Shortcuts and Hotkeys: The Power Spreadsheets Cheat Sheet now! Also, since I will include more keyboard shortcuts in the future, you'll be notified as soon as I release a new version of the cheat sheet.
As a side-note, one advantage of getting the PDF file by entering your email address above is that you can later bring the keyboard shortcuts from the PDF file into Excel in order to re-arrange them according to your preferences. For these purposes, you can use any of these methods to methods to convert PDF files to Excel. You can also implement these methods using VBA.
If, despite of the advantages of signing up for the free Power Spreadsheets Newsletter you don't want to get Excel Shortcuts and Hotkeys: The Power Spreadsheets Cheat Sheet, you can still check out these keyboard shortcuts. I list them in the tables below. Please use the following table of contents to navigate to the category of keyboard shortcuts that interests you:

Why not make a Blender Keyboard shortcut PDF Guide?
I´m with you. In fact, if you participated in this poll, or either if you´re feeling generous: you will receive the Blender PDF keyboard shortcut guide with XSIMOD shortcuts as well, right in your mail, and you may share it with everyone.
This free pdf guide has *some of the important active URLs for Blender community and it´s development*. Others have been turned off. This is a FREE PREVIEW PDF GUIDE. The *COMPLETE* PDF KEYBOARD SHORTCUT GUIDE along with the XSIMOD theme will be released once the XSIMOD theme scripts are finished.
The main objective in the XSIMOD theme is to enhance Blender´s user interaction. And dont´worry, future version like 2.8 WILL BE SUPPORTED thanks to the DEV team who are constantly reporting and posting what are the changes the API and all other crucial factors about Blender are being changed until October of this year. But rest assured that compatibility won´t be an issue.
In case you’d like to know what the XSIMOD theme is, you may visit this link>>
I´m an experienced/new user who want to present Blender to more people, but I don´t know how?!
I feel you there too. The first 3 pages have a very brief introduction to #WhyBlender is used as a choice for producing 3D. In case you´re the only one in the studio who is using Blender, the guide will pave your way with easy to understand graphics, sites, and reference to TOP Blender artwork for all your colleagues or technical director.
The link to DIRECTLY DOWNLOAD the free guide, will be posted in this article on MONDAY, April 16 in this same article. So you may comeback that day. If you would like to download it make sure you allow notifications on this site, or register yourself with your email on the subscriber´s mailing list to get the latest updates on 3dcinetv.com
DOWNLOAD THE FREE BLENDER SHORTCUT PDF GUIDE NOW>>
For everyone else who participated in the survey, they will get their Guide in the newsletter on Saturday, March 14th.
The PDF shown here is explicitly edited in A5 format for the sole purpose of ilustrating what the PDF looks like in the real world. You may print or reproduce it freely. Thank you very much for supporting the Blender community.
