Personally, whenever I start a new job, or install a new version of Excel, the first thing I do is record the following macro.
Sub CopyPasteSpecialValues() ' ' CopyPasteSpecialValues Macro ' Macro recorded 27/11/2008 ' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+V ' Selection.Copy Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _ :=False, Transpose:=False Application.CutCopyMode = False End Sub Most of my job involves data manipulation/extraction. To do this, I often write temporary functions which take existing raw data and turn it into more easily-readable formats. Since I share this data with sub-contractors and clients, I'm not permitted to release what is in effect, my employer's intellectual property. The macro allows me to highlight a range of cells, and with one keystroke, replace the existing functions with the values.
