Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFThe correct answer is Option 2) Toggles between absolute and relative references.
Key Points
- In Microsoft Excel, pressing the F4 key while editing a formula toggles the selected cell reference between:
- Relative (e.g., A1)
- Absolute (e.g., $A$1)
- Mixed references (e.g., A$1 or $A1)
- This helps control how cell references behave when formulas are copied or filled to other cells.
Additional Information
- Option 1 – Ctrl + F opens the Find and Replace dialog, not F4.
- Option 3 – F4 also repeats the last action in some contexts, but its primary role in formula editing is toggling references.
- Option 4 – F5 is used to open the "Go To" dialog, and Ctrl + Alt + F5 is used for refreshing.
