Way to replicate FactSet shortcuts without FactSet?

Trying to do some modeling on my personal computer, but one massive challenge is the lack of shortcuts. I'm really just wanting the smart Trace Precedents & Trace Dependents which is Ctrl-Shift-[ and Ctrl-Shift-]. Without the FactSet plugin, Excel just jumps to the first result. Is there a way to replicate something similar to the FactSet one that lets you click through all the precedents & dependents?

Bump. I’m addicted to fact set and need an alternative for when my internship ends
