Microsoft Excel Tutorial: Shortcut to AutoFit Columns in Excel.

Welcome to another episode of Learn Excel From MrExcel. In this podcast, we will be discussing a handy shortcut that will save you time and effort when working with varying column widths. Say goodbye to manually adjusting each column to fit the longest value in the column. With the ALT+O, C, A shortcut, you can easily AutoFit all columns in one go.

To use this shortcut, simply select the range of columns you want to AutoFit, and then press ALT+O, C, A. This will automatically adjust the width of each column to fit the longest value in that column. No more tedious manual adjustments needed!

Of course, there is also a mouse shortcut for this task. Simply select the columns you want to AutoFit and double-click any edge. This will achieve the same result as the ALT+O, C, A shortcut. So whether you prefer using keyboard shortcuts or mouse shortcuts, you can easily AutoFit columns in Excel.

Thanks Bill, I was using Alt+ OFCA but the method you demoed is one less keystroke.

Could you explain where the options are after you demo the shortcut? Microsoft changes the shortcuts on a language basis, so none of those shortcuts will work on Brazilian Portuguese, for example, but I can find the shortcut if you show where on the menu the options are.

Is there a command for AutoFit Row Heights?
