Is there any good trick how entering a plus (+) sign to cell opens instantly other spreadsheet where in the table are the values, one needs to copy to this first cell?

That's is entering + and without clicking to sheet tab next, (where the table is located), with mouse - because the task is very repeative.

The sequence is finished with "enter" which enters the copy to the cell.

The idea is to fill in 1st cell from the table, then using lookup function add 2 following columns from the same table, and when all rows have been filled to use copy and paste function to fixate created invoice or perhaps finally just to save as copy of spreadsheet.

Thanks for any ideas!
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
I have managed to create most of interactive invoice with basic Excel functions, yet without creating any macros.
But looks like there is no other way but a macro button for task "choose and enter a cell value" from a name defined table with product codes and names.

How could be created a basic macro button to toolbar with such a function?
(user selects a cell and clicks to macro button which opens the table where one selects a cell with desired value and ends selection macro with Enter key)

Help is much appreciated!
Thanks!
