editing cells without using mouse

Please Register to Remove these Ads

Hi,

I try to use the mouse as little as possible, and I can navigate in the spreadsheets just fine with the arrows on the keyboard, but I haven't found a way to edit a cell, e.g. insert some $-signs in a long formula, without mouseclicking the formula-bar above the sheet. I can type in the whole formula once more using only the keyboard of course, but that is not a very simple way to go if the formula is long and hard to remember.

Anyone know how to edit the contents of a cell using only the keyboard?

Thomas F
