but why are excel addins so pricey?-urlwolf (March 30, 2007, 07:03 AM)
Try the code below.-kfitting (March 31, 2007, 02:07 PM)
If it works as you want, I'll tell you how to get it to be present whenever you start excel (it's not intuitive and I don't know it off the top of my head... it involves making a personal.xls file and putting the following code in the workbook code module in an event function... if this works I'll step through that!)-kfitting (March 31, 2007, 02:07 PM)
Thanks Perry, that is an interesting piece of code.-urlwolf (March 30, 2007, 12:18 PM)
With a shortcut to get to the find box, it can make switching between sheets pretty snappy. I'd still prefer to have something like ctrl + tab, though.-urlwolf (March 30, 2007, 12:18 PM)
One comment... why ctrl-alt-tab? Why not ctrl-shift-tab? Most of the programs that I've seen that use ctrl-tab add shift to go background. But, since it's in vba, it's easily customizable!
I have magnaged to get some runtime errors. I deactivated all my other addins (that's how interested I am in this ctrl + tab functionality!), and have gotten rid of the runtime errors. However, the history doesn't work as expected (like normal windows ctrl + tab)... in my system, it just goes to next open sheet, not the last used. Example, imagine I have sheets A B C D E. I work on A, then click on C, and want to go back to A by doing ctrl + tab. The current implementation (at least in my system) goes to D (the SheetNumber ++), not to A.-urlwolf (April 01, 2007, 03:56 PM)

Yes, I'm using Navigate.xls, but not getting the "back to recently viewed worksheets" functionality. I get exactly the same functionality as when I do ctrl + page up/down. Is this what I should be getting?-urlwolf (April 02, 2007, 04:35 AM)
You are right :D
CTRL+ALT+TAB is a contorsion for me.
I'll try to change it on the code.-urlwolf (April 02, 2007, 07:33 AM)
Then, how do I make this change "permanent" (i.e., opening with excel everytime)?-urlwolf (April 02, 2007, 07:33 AM)
example. We have tabs A-C, and we click A, B, C. We are in C now, doing some work. I want to go back to B, so I hit ctrl tab. check some data, then I want to go back to C, and hit ctrl tab (as in windows alt tab). The current code takes me to A, not to C.-urlwolf (April 02, 2007, 07:44 AM)
Is this easy to implement?-urlwolf (April 02, 2007, 08:38 AM)
Perry, for some reason, when I moved yout addin to C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\Microsoft\AddIns, my 'other' favorite addin stopped working.-urlwolf (April 02, 2007, 07:00 PM)
Do you have any idea why?
Office 2007, win XP SP 2 here.-urlwolf (April 02, 2007, 07:00 PM)
Yes! This it it! perfect!-urlwolf (April 03, 2007, 08:04 PM)
I'm not sure whether it will be useful for anybody (I had to fish for it a little) but if you want to remove the arrows on the sheet once you clicked "Chase", you need to go to Tools > Formula Auditing > Remove All Arrows. I don't know a partial arrow removal option.-cemole (April 04, 2007, 05:52 AM)
One question.Three question marks ;)-urlwolf (April 04, 2007, 08:28 AM)
Is there any way to switch workbooks, now that ctrl + tab has been overriden?
You can always go to view > switch windows (xl 2007) for a list, but that is pretty inconvenient.-urlwolf (April 04, 2007, 08:28 AM)
Maybe an extra shortcut such as ctrl shift tab would be a good addition? Is there any other native xl shortcut?-urlwolf (April 04, 2007, 08:28 AM)
Perry, for some reason, when I moved yout addin to C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Application Data\Microsoft\AddIns, my 'other' favorite addin stopped working.
Do you have a preference for a Key Combination? I'd lean toward CTRL+ALT+TAB.Looks good to me :)

I can confirm that this is still happening. All addins are dissabled if a drop navigator.xls in that folder (!). Weird, no idea what excel 2007 may be doing different...-urlwolf (April 09, 2007, 07:22 AM)
