I have searched a lot for an answer to this and am beginning to think there isn't one...

I would like to create a list of all the currently assigned shortcut keys, I don't just mean those assigned to macros but the ones delivered with Excel and that may or may not have been amended. I think this would be very useful to all users especially if it was release independent.

Does anything exist that does this?

Thank you........................... liz

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off

Re: Listing all shotcut keys

A nearly complete Microsoft list: https://support.office.com/en-us/ar...-Windows-1798d9d5-842a-42b8-9c99-9b7213f0040f

This has some that aren't listed on the MS page: http://www.asap-utilities.com/excel-tips-shortcuts.php

And this one: https://exceljet.net/keyboard-shortcuts

Microsoft changed some shortcuts between 2003 and 2007 versions and they continue to change them. Menu shortcuts, get changed too. If you have a newer version of Excel, type Alt+d and a message will pop up: "Continue typing the menu key sequence ..."

My favorite little known key sequences are the context menu shortcuts. If you're on Windows with a keyboard that has a menu key, copy a range of cells, then select a destination. Press the menu key (between Rt-Alt and Rt-Ctrl) then press V to paste values only, or R to paste formats only, or T to transpose+paste.

Re: Listing all shotcut keys

lizat,

Welcome to the MrExcel forum.

There is a lot of information on the web if you do a search for excel shortcut keys

And, the list will also be by Excel version.

Thank you to all of you that have replied. However what I wanted was an add-on or some vba to allow me, or anyone else, to list the currently assigned shortcut keys. I have the list of default keys, that is available all over the place. The question was asked because:
  • each release is different and it would be handy to print what is assigned, and not have to trawl help or the net
  • one can assign keys to different actions so the user may have customised the assignments

Many years ago, Windows 95 I think, I had a function which allowed me to do this, and Ivan M had a listing utility (possibly only for Macro assignments?). So I was looking for something that works today.

Perhaps it doesn't exist, shame ....................................liz

Re: Listing all shotcut keys

The add-in you referred to was by Ivan Moala. Unfortunately, I can't find Ivan Moala's macro with a Google search.

Ron Rosenfeld has a macro posted on both Stackoverflow and on Google Groups. I haven't compared the two postings to see if there are any differences.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16862306/excel-vba-to-list-key-bindings-onkey

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/microsoft.public.excel.worksheet.functions/TwcT-IlWjVk

Turns out the macro key shortcuts are contained in the code modules, but hidden. You have to export the code module and examine the 'Attribute' lines.

Ron Rosenfeld gives this example for a lowercase 'a' keyboard shortcut for the Macro named 'MacroShortCutKeys':
Attribute MacroShortCutKeys.VB_ProcData.VB_Invoke_Func = "a\n14"

I think the '\n14' in the above line is an end of transmission character group.
