Default Rapidly Approaching Meltdown

One thing you might want to check is whether transition navigation keys got
turned on. I just checked first with out it turned on and result was as you
stated. Then I went to Tools-Options-Navigation and turned on Transition
Navigation keys and result was as you stated. BTW, I usually use
End-direction (as I started with Lotus 123 and that was the key combination
there) and this works both with transtion navigation keys turned on or off.

Please help! This is driving me nuts!

For some reason that I have not been able to identify, when I try to
select a range of adjacent cells using the Ctrl+Shft+Arrow Key
combination in the Formula Bar, rather than select the range of cells I
would like the formula to operate on, only the first cell in the range
is selected!.

Example worksheet range:

Col B
Row 1 10
Row 2 10
Row 3 10
Row 4 10
Row 5 =SUM(

1. I enter =SUM( in cell B5
2. I select the last cell in the range I want to sum by hitting the up
arrow - B4
3. I hit Ctrl+Shift+Up Arrow+Enter - Until today, this resulted in
=SUM(B1:B4) in cell B5.
4. For some extremely infuriating reason, the resulting formula in Cell
B5 = SUM(B4)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This happens in all workbooks even when I restart Excel!

Somebody please please tell me why this happens and how I can fix it!

Thanks - Walker
