Exactly -- and you need to take your hand off the mouse.

I've noticed one annoying feature of Calc -- it apparently cannot
support the use of a dash (ie, a hyphen) in worksheet names. Any '-' in
an Excel worksheet name has been converted by Calc to '_'. I NEVER use
the underscore, and I'm really disappointed with this constraint. Does
anybody know why the constraint exists?
Also disappointed that F4 does not repeat the preceding command as
happens in Excel -- that's a shortcut that I use a lot, and it is much
slower to have to use Ctrl Shift Y.

No idea why Calc does not support the dash (hyphen). But it might be
something that you have to live with.
The F4 key is used to open the Data Window at the top of the OOo
window. So, it is not available to use it as a short cut for something
else. And I do not see how using Ctrl+Shift+Y should be any slower to use
than the F4 key. The only difference I see is you need to use fingers
from two hands rather than one.
