The end user is inputting information on a page where only selected cells
available to be changed. Having the scroll lock on is causing additional
problems if the end user types information in one cell and before hitting
enter uses on of the arrow keys. Turning off the scroll lock would "fix"
this problem. Is there a better "fix"?

I guess that if they hit an arrow key, I could tell excel to "enter" and
then move. If this is better, is the code for this rather easy?

Why are you turning off scroll lock. That is a setting that affects all
programs that are running. You are not only changing how XL works but how all
programs work. While I am not saying don't do it I am saying be very careful
here... I personally would not be heading down that path. You need to catch
not only when the workbook is activated/deactivated but also when XL is
activated/deactivated.

I have the logic in a macro to turn off the scroll lock button, but now I'm
wondering what the macro type should be.

Do I need it in two places - one at the workbook level to make sure that it
is turn off once the workbook is loaded and another at the workbook change
level to ensure that it doesn't get selected while in the application?
