There is probably Help on keyboard shortcuts but you can investigate, create (with some limitations) and delete them using /Tools /Customize: Keyboard tab. You may have to get/compose macros for the two instances you mention (I do not know). > A- n- d - is there a way to drag two cells down to copy the contents? ( > i.e. If you had 20 cells with the same date) If you drag using the handle in the bottom right corner, you'll get sequential dates. Formatting the date as text produces bizarre results when you drag down. Selecting and dragging down two date cells produces pairs. As far as I know, you'll have to copy and paste. > > I would greatly appreciate any tips or suggestions for better using > Openoffice.
