Default Default values for Split Cells dialogue box

Note that F4 performs the same action as Ctrl+Y.

I use the Split Cells feature daily. Currently the dialogue box has
static
values of 2 and 1 respectfully for "Number of Columns" and "Number of
Rows".
This tool could be enhanced significantly if a means were provided that
would
allow the default values to populate either based on the last set of
values
the user entered, or if the user could set their own defaults. The
former
would be more helpful for me.


For the former, if you do all your cell splitting immediately one after
the
other, you can use CTRL-Y to repeat the exact same type of cell-splitting
to
a new selection. CTRL-Y repeats the last action that you did.
Of course, if you do something else in-between each cell splitting, it
will
not work.


Thank you very much for that tip, that will make my documentational life
much easier.
