Hello,

When you need to type
=2^14
how do you do that?
When I press (azerty keyboard) ^ and then use the numeric keyboard, the other keyboard keeps "waiting", so I do not get the ^ sign.

Currently I am typing a space to get the ^.
typing =2^[space]14 I get the above without space.

Can typing the extraspace be avoided, or are you as annoyed as me?

Feel free to divert this thread as you which, else I would have posted this elsewhere. :biggrin:

kind regards,
Erik

Excel Facts

Create a chart in one keystroke
Select the data and press Alt+F1 to insert a default chart. You can change the default chart to any chart type
Erik, you need to switch to a Belgian Swiss German keyboard.:)

On mine, I type 2^14 (no space required) and it works fine.
 
I need to go incognito for a while (not the same reason as Greg gave for Rightclick). Same reason for shifting location.:confused:
 
Wasn't me guv, honest! Ne'er met the lady in me life, dunno what she looks like. Cross me 'art.

The door to divert this thread was opened from start...

Can somebody figure out why I started this thread?
It's kind of enigma.

There is something like a milestone in it :-D

... do not count this post, and go on with your discussion if you want ...

Very good Erik ;)

Was your post entirely spurious, or do you actually have a weird keyboard?
