In my November 10 post, I complained that Ctrl + A in Excel 2003 no longer selects all cells in the worksheet, it only selects the current region, the way Ctrl + Shift + * (asterisk) always did.
Although I suggested pressing Ctrl + Alt + Spacebar instead, here's the real story: to select all cells, just press Ctrl + A twice! The first time, you'll select the current region; the second time, you'll select all cells, just as in previous versions.
Just like laws and sausages, this is how tip books get made.

Here are some great formatting shortcuts I often use in Word (they work in any version):To apply built-in styles quickly, try these:
Since all these shortcuts are for paragraph formatting, you don't even need to select the paragraph (unless you want to format more than one paragraph at a time). Just click in any paragraph, and these shortcuts will work.
