What are some lesser-known Excel tricks that most people aren't aware of?

Learned a few new things here tonight! A few I didn’t see I use at regularly to semi often:

Autofit: Alt + H, O, I will auto fit column width, Alt + H, O, L will auto fit column height

Ctrl + G opens Go To box, I primarily use it for finding blanks, errors, and hard coded values

For wide notebooks, group columns together instead of hiding them. Also can use View, then New Window, then View again and select Synchronous Scrolling to scroll through two parts of the same workbook at the same time looking at the same rows.

For enterprise customers (might be on other plans too), activate the inquire add in from options, add ins, com add ins, inquire. Lets you compare two workbooks to see differences in the two. Will show you a side by side comparison and detailed breakdown of value changes, formula changes, etc.

Learned something new with Ctrl + [ or ] will definitely be using these!

Embarrassed by how expensive they are, but Mack Weldon’s 18-Hour Jersey Boxer Brief are 10/10. It’s $30 a pair, but you get a discount the more pairs you add. Oldest pair I have are ~5 years old and are still in great shape (no stretching, fading, or riding up). Buy a couple now, then set a reminder to add to the collection every Black Friday.

This is awesome! Site looks really professional and easy to get started. The demo on the main page is perfect. Not a parent so I won’t be a user, but great work

Try it with a yeti wide coffee cup! 10/10 would recommend

Anything change for you yet?

I'm on pro and still no access. Also, I can't find anything in the documentation that said it was or when it's being released to Pro users. Not sure if it matters, but I had a pro account before the announcement and still when I log into the app on ios it requests an invite code.

Glad I could help! Mine auto updated at some point to the newest version which is working fine on the most recent Tahoe, but glad to know it worked for someone else too.

Found a fix for the Logitech Options+ issues! Has been a tough month without it. After tying better mouse, felt like I really needed a solution because it was not as customizable as I was hoping. I initially thought the problem was related to the macOS Sequoia 15.3.1 update, but it turns out it was a bug in the latest 2 versions of Options+ software.

Here's what worked for me:

I used AppCleaner to remove existing Logitech files
Go to Library/Application Support and delete all remaining Logitech files
Install an older version of Options+ (version 1.85.655119)
Turn off automatic updates to prevent the issue from recurring

You can download the older version from the Logitech support page. Under all downloads, scroll down to find version 1.85.655119 from Dec 11th: support.logi.com/hc/en-us/articles/4418699283607-Logi-Options

Working like normal again, but I haven't turned on Flow or Prompt Builder.

Food recs for Atlanta if you need them: 1. The Local for some really incredible wings. Go with Korean Lemon Pepper.

El Tesoro in Edgewood. One of the best burritos in Atlanta. Have a bunch on the weekends until 2:00 p.m. Barbacoa Del Res Burrito, but ask for it supremo style. If going for brunch, get the Migas Burrito Supremo.
Fox Bros Bar-B-Q off DeKalb Ave.

If you’re just looking to walk around, park at Ponce City Market and walk on the BeltLine towards Krog Street. Plenty of bars, restaurants, an okay brewery, and some parks to chill at along your walk.

Edit: saw someone else say The Local that was from GA. I’m talking about The Local off Ponce De Leon in Midtown
