Alt plus = to quickly sum

I just picked up a quick way to quickly total a large set of numbers in Excel 2007/2010 and I wanted to share it with you.   With this tip you select the data and then press the Alt Key and then the equal sign key.

Below is a simple table of data.
Simply select from A3 to F9 and then press the Alt key and the Equal sign.
Alt+=
This will automatically total Column F and Row 9.

It is pretty flexible - I  get the same result if I select A4 to F9 or B4 to F9.
Have a great weekend.
