  1. Hi John. Great shortcut video! Worth noting that when creating a chart quickly with ALT+F1 or SHIFT+ALT+F1, you need only have the cell pointer in the range of data for the chart. It is not required to highlight the full range of data. As long as it is structure in such a way that EXCEL can figure it out, only having the pointer within the range is needed. Thanks for sharing your tips :)) Thumbs up!!

    1. Great tip Wayne! Thanks for sharing. Everything is so much easier in Excel when you have your data structured properly, and this is a great example I’ll bear in mind for the future 👍

    1. Glad you love the video. There’s nothing that’ll save you more time in Excel. I say it so often because it’s so true 👍
