I have a Excel 2010 workbook that is shared by other users who periodically update various cells. Is there a shortcut key, like F5 with most web browsers, that updates the document with any changes that have been made since I opened the workbook?

The following do not work:

  • F5
  • F9
  • SHFT + F9
  • CTRL + ALT + F9
  • CTRL + ALT + SHFT F9

Hitting Save works, as long as you are careful not to save anything you didn't want.

It's definitely odd that f5 doesn't refresh in Excel.

Create a macro

Sub Makro1()
ActiveWorkbook.RefreshAll
End Sub

Assing keyboard shortcut to the macro

Alt + A, R, R or A in sequence will refresh the data.

Use Review, Track Changes, check Track changes while editing, and select the options you want.

    The OP was asking how to refresh data. I don't remember using a shared spreadsheet that also had data to refresh, but I suppose you could unshare, refresh, then re-share(?).
