--- Comment #3 from Tim Deaton <[email protected]> ---
I just found out about the similar (but not quite the same) [ctrl]-[d] function
that Owen described, and it WILL be very helpful.  But I agree that adding the
[ctrl]-["] function that's been in Excel at least since 1997 would be much more
intuitive for Excel users who know about it.

(I used Excel for a decade before discovering [ctrl]-["], but in the decade
since discovering it I've used it almost every day.)

The main difference between [ctrl]-[d] and Excel's [ctrl]-["] is that when
Excel's function copies the formula from the above cell, it does NOT adjust the
formula's relative reference.

IE:
If cell B1 contained the formula "=A1"
then, selecting cell B2 and then [ctrl]-[d] would enter "=A2" in cell B2
while selecting cell B2 and then Excel's [ctrl]-["] would enter "=A1" in cell
B2.
