For Office Scripts professionals,
I can move from Tab1 To Tab2 through the script, but I don’t know how to move to cell A1 when moving to another tab. Any ideas 💡 please 🙏
I try to link a script to a button to move to a specific Cell (Ex:A1) in Tab2.
I'm good to move to Tab2 but I can't move the cursor to A1 cell
A bit of what you're using to go to Tab2 would help but I think I have a general idea of what you're asking.
After specifying the tab, you cause use .getCell(0.0).select();
Assuming there's nothing else on the sheet (saying that because that's all that's provided) it should go to A1.
Hope this helps!!

I wanted to know is there any keyboard shortcut to clear specific cell output in databricks.
As of now i can see there is option to hide the result.
As far as I know, this is currently not possible, it's all or nothing sadly.
However a workaround I've found for this, is adding an empty cell below the cell you want to clear the output for. Then click the left blue line of the cell (to select the cell and not its contents) and then press SHIFT + M (merge with cell below).
I am having a problem with Excel 2010 that I have never seen before. When I hit the arrow key to move to the next cell, instead of moving to the next cell, it tries to add the next cell.
Example: From Cell A1 if I hit the right arrow key, it does not move to Cell A2, but instead comes up with "+A2" within Cell A1. Has anyone experienced this before?
I'm thinking it's some weird option that can be turned on or off because it happens, no matter which spreadsheet I am in. Thanks in advance for the help.
P.S. - This is NOT the problem where the spreadsheet scrolls when you use the arrow keys. I've already been there and done that. :)
Your scroll lock is on. This is a bug in excel that surfaces sometimes - particularly in 64 bit office
The solution that everyone suggests is scroll lock key. This did not help me at all.
However, I did just notice that I had the formula builder pane open (I'm on mac, can't verify for win). When I closed it, the problem went away. I can now commit cell values by using the arrow key again!
It seems having the formula builder open puts the cell into formula mode, even if you are not actively using the builder in that cell.
I am looking for the keyboard shortcut to edit a formula in the formula edit field. I am not looking for similar functionality such as F2, which allows you to edit the formula, but only with the cursor in the cell you are working on.
Put another way, I am looking to move my cursor to the field to the right of the "fx" (function sign + "x") field that is just below the ribbon so I can edit a formula in Excel and have it behave the way I want.
I know many will ask why. The main reason I want to do this is when formulas get long they wrap (which is difficult to follow) and/or cover up adjacent cells (which makes modeling more difficult). I don't want to change the wrapping behavior etc. because I actually use it (it is helpful) in some cases.
I do not want a solution that involves a macro because I want this to work on any computer I am working on.
Been Excel'ing for a long time and this is one of the few things I have to go to the mouse for and it slows me down.
EDIT: also can't lose the reference color coded highlighting. F2 then Ctrl + A gets the cursor up there in the formula bar, but the wrapping in the cell stays (bad) and the color coded reference highlighting goes away (bad).
I found a way but you may or may not like it.
In Excel older than 2007 do the following and then use F2:
From the Tools menu, choose Options.
Click the Edit tab.
Uncheck the Edit Directly In Cell option in the Settings area.
Click OK
In Excel 2007 and newer do the following and then use F2:
Click the Office button and then click Excel Options (at the bottom
right).
Select Advanced in the left pane.
Uncheck the Allow Editing Directly In Cell option.
Click OK.
Giving credit where credit is due I found this on the below site by simply googling "excel keyboard shortcuts formula bar"

I have an excel sheet with 100s of rows. I want to be able to lock a particular range from being edited while the others can be left editable. And protect the locked range with a password.
Please help
Activesheet.protect locks the whole sheet. I want it only for a few cells.
F1 opens the Excel help. If you do a search in there, or on google, the top result would be the following link:
https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Lock-or-unlock-specific-areas-of-a-protected-worksheet-75481b72-db8a-4267-8c43-042a5f2cd93a
This should help you out.
In short:
Right click on the cells you want editable
Format Cells...
Tab Protection
For cells that people should be able to Edit: Uncheck "Locked". For cells that people should NOT be able to edit, leave the check for "Locked".
Click OK.
Next, go to the Review tab in the Ribbon and protect your sheet as normal.
So I have a worksheet that I have exported and easily formatted without code from SharePoint. I have cells A11 through R11 that I want locked so when I refresh the column widths don't go back to normal as I wrapped the text. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I know VBA might have to be used and if so I would love a little description of why.
The following will keep certain column widths from being adjusted:
1. Select all the cells
2. Right click and choose Format Cells
3. Go to Protection tab and uncheck Locked
4. Select the columns you want to lock and repeat steps 1-3 above (this time check Locked)
5. Go to Review tab and deselect Select Locked Cells.
6. Click okay
That should work for you.
