How to insert Bullet Points with a Shortcut Key in MS Excel ?

Introduction to shortcut keys

Shortcut keys are the best way to insert a bullet point if you don’t have the time to play with a symbol dialog box. We have two different shortcut keys in MS Excel and you can use any of these.

Tutorial in Brief

1. Select the cell in which you want to add a bullet point.
2. Press F2 to edit the cell.
3. Hold the alt key and press 7 or 9 to insert a bullet.

Both shortcut keys will give you different types of bullets. If you want to add a dark dot for bullet points you can use Alt + 7 or if you want to add a circle, you can use alt + 9.
