Description dbadia 2012-02-20 18:24:02 UTC 
In previous versions of OpenOffice calc, ctrl+] could be used to jump to the cell referenced by the cell you are on (same shortcut exists is MS Excel too).  

Example:
1.  assume A1 contains '=Sheet2.B2'
2. put focux on A1, pressing  ctrl+] should take you to Sheet2.B2

Unfortunately I did a whole system upgrade so I'm not sure what version this last worked on.

Thanks
Dave

Original submissions had a typo, the correct key combo is ctrl+[ (corrected title too).  I've attached a sample spreadsheet.  In sheet1, click here, then ctrl+[, you will be taken to sheet2

Comment 5 Ephraim Purcell 2013-01-27 20:35:15 UTC 
I am still unable to recreate this keyboard behaviour on various configurations. The "[" (square bracket) key is not used in AOO keyboard shortcuts (see attached screen capture). What keyboard layout are you using?
Comment 6 dbadia 2013-01-30 02:09:35 UTC 
I am using a US keyboard.  The behavior I see is that the shortcut works in MS Excel, but not in OpenOffice Calc
Comment 7 Edwin Sharp 2013-11-18 20:20:00 UTC 
Shortcut is missing.

Comment 8 Rainer Bielefeld 2014-03-19 11:40:50 UTC 
Version has been modified erroneous, so back to most early version

May be that one has been removed intendedly because "[" on many keyboards does not exist as key?

Any ideas for workarounds?
