Go to row option/hotkey?

I was wondering if Google Sheets has a "Go to row 37" option / hotkey?Something similar to using find (Ctrl-f or Cmd-f) to find text.

I don't think that there is a "jump to row" feature.

But if you had an extra column with the row numbers, you can search for the row number with Ctrl-F.

If you are looking for just certain rows, you could define named ranges and use the range list as a jump table.

You could also write a script that would show an input box to ask for a row number and then activate a cell on that row.

Thanks, Steven Parker. I'll check your suggestions out. The reason I thought of this was from one of the earlier quiz questions for the course and wanted to jump to see what was in row 37 instead of having to scroll through the large list.

I agree that it would be handy. Perhaps in a future update?
