Short cut key for 'address' line

[Abi]

Is there a short cut key available for getting to the 'address' line in
Excel? Don't know what's it's called but it's the line where cell input also
appears (next to fx). I know in Internet Explorer the short cut key is F6,
but that doesn't seem to be the one in Excel.

Hi,

I think the closet you get is tapping F2.
But if you go
Tools|Options|Edit
Un-Check 'Edit directly in cell'
OK

Now if you tap F2 the insertion point moves to the formula bar.

Look here for a full list
