Default Appears that HotKeys have been used, but where in Excel 97?

I know how it could be done, thats where I looked in the first place - but
no. There are no warnings about macro security on starting and there is no
vba code in the workbook at all. I am at a loss. Is there a personal.xls for
Excel 97? Thinking about it it cannot be in there, or it would effect ALL
workbooks and it doesn't - just this one! Well confused here

Hiya,
I have a spreadsheet that has been moved from one PC that

was running Excel
97 to another running Excel XP. On the old PC, when the

user presses ctrl + A
it resets all of the values in a certain column to zero.

There are other
keyboard shortcuts that do odd things as well, but none

of them work on the
new PC. I have looked at the old PC and there are no

macros or any VBA behind
the spreadsheet. Does anyone have any idea as to how this

was done? I would
like to repeat it on the new PC. If I open a new

spreadsheet, put some dummy
data into it and press the ctrl + A it selects all rather

than behaving the
same way as the previous sheet did.
Thanks in advance
