Viewing the previous entries of the same column









Viewing the previous entries of the same column

If you find yourself making repetitive entries into an Excel spreadsheet, press Alt-Down to view a drop-down list of previous entries in the current column. Arrow down the list and press Enter to make a selection.

Keep in mind that this technique works with text only, not numbers, and your cursor must be in or adjacent to a contiguous block of non-blank cells.
