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:
