    Fantastic! I’ve been using many of those keyboard shortcuts since the Excel 95 days and am happy that Microsoft continues to support them. I’ve thought about trying to locate a legacy version of the software to compile a list, but you’ve saved me the trouble! Thanks!

      You’re very welcome!

    One more for the list:
    Alt+E-L (delete active sheet)
