The tutorial explains how to use Paste Special in Excel and how to make the process more efficient by using paste special shortcuts to paste values, formulas, comments, formats, column width, and more.
Copy pasting in Excel is easy. I believe everyone knows the shortcut to copy a cell (Ctrl+C) and to paste it (Ctrl+V). But did you know that apart from pasting a whole cell, you can paste only a certain attribute such as value, formula, formatting or comment? That's where Paste Special comes in.
In situations where a standard copy / paste in not appropriate, Excel's Paste Special offers a wide range of options to paste only specific elements of the copied cells or perform a mathematical operation with the copied data.
For example, you can copy formula-driven data and paste only the calculated values in the same or different cells. Or, you can copy the width of one column and apply it to all other columns in your data set. Or, you can transpose the copied range, i.e. convert rows to columns and vice versa. The following screenshot demonstrates all available Paste Special options:
All of the Paste Special commands work within the same worksheet as well as across different sheets and workbooks.
How to paste special in ExcelThe use of Paste Special in Excel boils down to the following:
Usually, Microsoft Excel provides a numbers of ways to utilize the same feature, and Paste Special is no different. You can access its features via the ribbon, right-click menu and keyboard shortcuts.
To find out what a particular icon does, hover over it. A hit will pop up and Live Preview will take over enabling you to see the paste effect straight away. This method is especially useful when you have just started learning the feature.
Tip. If you are not a right-click kind of person and prefer having your hands on the keyboard most of the time, you can open the context menu by pressing the Shift+F10 shortcut or context menu key instead of right-clicking the target cell. On most keyboards, the context menu key is located to the right of the spacebar, between Alt and Ctrl.3. Shortcut for Paste SpecialThe fastest way to paste a specific aspect of the copied data in Excel is using one of the following shortcuts.
Both of the above shortcuts open Excel's Paste Special dialog, where you can select the desired option with the mouse or hit a corresponding shortcut key. In the following section, you will find a full list of available paste options and their shortcut keys.
Excel Paste Special shortcut keysAs you already know, Excel's Paste Special dialog can be opened via the Ctrl+Alt+V shortcut combination. After that, you can pick a specific paste option by pressing just one letter key on your keyboard.
At first sight, this seems like a lot of keystrokes to remember, but with just a little practice you will be able to paste special in Excel faster than an average user can reach for the mouse. To begin with, you can learn the paste special values shortcut (Ctrl+Alt+V, then V) that you would probably use several times a day.
If you happen to forget a shortcut key, just have a look at the required option in the Paste Special dialog and notice an underlined letter. As you can remember, the paste values shortcut key is V and this letter is underlined in "Values".
As shown in the screenshot below, the comments are copied to the cells in another column (from column A to C), and all existing values in the destination cells are preserved.
How to copy values in ExcelSupposing you've created a summary report from a number of sources, and now you need to send it to your client or supervisor. The report contains a bunch of formulas that pull information from other sheets, and even more formulas that calculate the source data. The question is - how do you send the report with final numbers without cluttering it with tons of initial data? By replacing the formulas with calculated values!
Tip. If you are copying values to another range and want to keep the original number formats such as the currency symbols or the number of decimal places, press Ctrl+Alt+V, and then U to paste values and number formats.How to quickly transpose in ExcelThere are a few ways to change columns to rows in Excel, and the fastest one is using the Paste Transpose option. Here's how:
To learn other ways to transpose in Excel, please check out this tutorial: How to switch columns and rows in Excel.
How to copy column width in ExcelThis example will teach you how to quickly set the desired width to all columns of your Excel table.
That's it! Only the column's width is copied to other columns, but not any data contained in the source column.
How to copy a column's width as well as contentsQuite often, when copying data from one column to another you have to adjust the destination column's width manually to accommodate the new values. In this case, you may like the following way to copy the source data AND column width in one fell swoop.
The source data and the column's width are copied to another column in just a couple of mouse clicks!
How to paste and add/subtract/multiply/divide at a timePerforming arithmetic operations in Excel is easy. Usually, a simple equation like =A1*B1 is all what it takes. But if the resulting data is supposed to be numbers rather than formulas, Excel Paste Special can save you a trouble of replacing formulas with their values.
By using the same approach, you can quickly increase or reduce an entire column of numbers by a certain percentage. In this case, you input the percentage formula such as =1+20% in a separate cell, copy it, and then use Excel Paste Special to multiply the source numbers by the value in the copied cell. The detailed steps can be found here: How to increase / reduce a column by percentage.
Example 2. Removing multiple hyperlinks in ExcelThis very technique (paste and multiply) can be used to remove all hyperlinks in your worksheet in one go. A regular way of right clicking on each cell and then selecting Remove hyperlink would take forever. Instead, you can just multiply all those unwanted hyperlinks by 1. Sounds odd? That's only until you give it a try :) In summary, here's what you do:
