Who needs a mouse? Let your fingers do the walking! Straight from the Help files, here are the keyboard combo shortcuts using CTRL:

Key	Description
CTRL+SHIFT+(	Unhides any hidden rows within the selection.
CTRL+SHIFT+)	Unhides any hidden columns within the selection.
CTRL+SHIFT+&	Applies the outline border to the selected cells.
CTRL+SHIFT_	Removes the outline border from the selected cells.
CTRL+SHIFT+~	Applies the General number format.
CTRL+SHIFT+$	Applies the Currency format with two decimal places (negative numbers in parentheses). [This one makes so much sense!]
CTRL+SHIFT+%	Applies the Percentage format with no decimal places. [Again, stunningly logical!]
CTRL+SHIFT+^	Applies the Exponential number format with two decimal places.
CTRL+SHIFT+#	Applies the Date format with the day, month, and year.
CTRL+SHIFT+@	Applies the Time format with the hour and minute, and AM or PM.
CTRL+SHIFT+!	Applies the Number format with two decimal places, thousands separator, and minus sign (-) for negative values.
CTRL+SHIFT+*	Selects the current region around the active cell (the data area enclosed by blank rows and blank columns).In a PivotTable, it selects the entire PivotTable report.
CTRL+SHIFT+:	Enters the current time. [Think about it: colon, time separator... sure! That makes sense!]
CTRL+SHIFT+”	Copies the value from the cell above the active cell into the cell or the Formula Bar. [Ditto... but see below for CTRL+single quote]
CTRL+SHIFT+Plus (+)	Displays the Insert dialog box to insert blank cells. [Yes! No more right-click, scroll...]
CTRL+Minus (-)	Displays the Delete dialog box to delete the selected cells.
CTRL+;	Enters the current date. [Remember: CTRL+colon gives the time, so it sort of makes sense that CTRL+semicolon would give a less precise rendition of the time. Right.]
CTRL+`	Alternates between displaying cell values and displaying formulas in the worksheet.
CTRL+’	Copies a formula from the cell above the active cell into the cell or the Formula Bar. [O.K., I quibble here. Copying a formula is a more substantial and powerful trick than copying a value. This would make more sense to me if the double quote copied exactly what's above -- value, formula, the whole she-bang -- and the single quote was the one that pulled just the value but not the formula. Maybe I can macro-reverse that!]
CTRL+1	Displays the Format Cells dialog box.
CTRL+2	Applies or removes bold formatting.
