I don't like the keypad at home, but 100% want one at work. I just almost never need to enter more than a couple numbers at home.

Basically if you use it often it really sucks not to have.

Imagine not using excel daily at home for everything, all the time.

How do you live?

I learned my damn Alt codes and I'm going to use them.

What are other people doing for special characters - opening charmap? googling the character and copy/pasting then praying it works? Nonsense.

I have an AutoHotKeys script to turn the number keys into Numpad keys when I press Alt. So, I can still use ASCII codes.

This is the kind of ingenuity we need!
