Hi Paul,

      I don't wanna copy the formula, just wanna copy the text after "=".
Sometimes there is a long string after "=", and I wanna copy that string
instead of typing it at other place:)   If there is not shortcut, is there
any way at all..hehe

    Well, regarding Ctrl+D : If there is formula in the above cell, actually
when you use Ctrl+D, the below cell copies the formula as well. That is
totally same as Ctrl+C then Ctrl+V...I don't know what makes Ctrl+D
different?
