Excel functions and short cuts

I'm used to working on excel on my old pc and I use a lot of short cuts (i.e. F2 to correct a cell; F4 do re-do last actio, Control = to sum....) Apparently excel function for mac are different and I'm not able to use any of my short cuts anymore. Is there a way to make Excel for Mac work the same way as Excel for PC?

Thanks

Yes, all us Mac users were really upset when windows Excel changed all the
keyboard shortcuts from the original Mac version. Look in Excel help for
keyboard shortcuts to discover the Mac key combinations. You can also change
the keyboard behavior by choosing Tools-customize keyboard.

The shortcuts you asked for Excel for Mac are:

Instead F2 press "Control + u"
Instead F4 press "Command + t"

I hope this reply can help you
