    To my knowledge, they do not exist, however, you can record two separate
    macros, assign to keystroke for each feature and then you have your own
    hot-keys.

    in a tortuous way one can think of series of keyboard actions

    alt+o
    e
    a
    alt+m
    enter

    not a single short cut.

    Hi!

    Unfortunately Excel 2003 doesn't show shortcut keys in the ScreenTips for any of its buttons. (Why? It's so useful as a learning aid). So I've not been able to find the shortccut (if it exists).
    However, it has a single toolbar button which does merge/centre. You can produce your own shortcut key by recording as a macro the result of clicking this button.

    True, but as you note, it is laborious. The user may as well just click
    the icon on the format bar-that would be quicker.

    Before posting the message, I tried to the following:
    1. Set the macro to record and assigned Ctrl-Shift-A
    2. Selected two cells
    3. Clicked the merge icon
    4. Stopped the recorder
    5. Edited the code to remove the 1st line (the reference to he
    selection)
    6. Saved the macro

    After testing it worked fine on ANY selected group of cells.

    In retrospect, I could have started the recorder AFTER the cell
    selection so that steps 5 & 6 would have been eliminated.
