Does anyone know how can I switch between different open worksheets in Excel 2016 on Mac with a keyboard shortcut? 

It does not seem to work as it did in previous version or the way it works on Windows unfortunately.

Or is there a way to have two different Excels open on Mac simultaneously?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Best regards,

Peter

While i have been using excel for over 25 years, only within the last two months have I been using it on a Mac.  Clearly, excel is a much more robust program on a PC then a Mac. 

Since using MSFT office (excel) on the Mac, the only way I found to switch between work books was CTRL + Tab works.  Yesterday I installed Office 365 and while CTRL + Tab no longer works, CMD + ~ will switch between works books.

This rambling thread has intermixed feedback from many users over an extended period of time. It refers to numerous update levels of Office 2016 (most of which now are obsolete) running on 2 different editions of OS X and the comments jump between 3 different aspects of "switching";

  • Switching between application windows,
  • Switching between open workbook windows, &
  • Switching between worksheets within a workbook

In order to address a current issue it always is best to submit a new message stating all factors pertinent to your situation rather than adding to another conversation. In that way you can avoid getting tangles up in the melee. In fact, new postings to Answered questions often go unseen altogether.

Also, "Office 365" is not a version of the Microsoft Office software, it's Microsoft;s marketing name for their software subscription service. Make sure to indicate your actual version of Office as well as its specific update level.

    If you change their name, delete them, or move them, when Excel tries to use the file it will ask if you want to remove the item from the list of add-ins. Feel free to ascribe the lack of a Remove option in the Tools > Add-ins dialog to any malady you prefer: Stupidity, incompetence, laziness, too cheap to spend the money on a button, or make up your own reason.
