Response Sept 2012 - to above answer. I wish folks who "attempt" to answer these questions, note the quotes around attempt, for that's all they are, feable attempts at most, would first learn how to READ the question. The question is one I have been searching for the past week, with no luck. It may require a VBA program to accomplish, but at this time I have found no combination of keys that will return you to the immediately previous cell you were in. Let's assume for the moment we are on the same worksheet. By going back to the previous cell I'm sure the questions means if I'm in cell B 12, and then scroll down to cell P 154 and enter something, how do I get back to cell B 12 without having to cursor up and over to it or hitting the "goto" icon on the upper left of the worksheet and typing in B 12.
