Default Sheet slow moving from cell to cell

I use a spreadsheet for work for expenses. Somehow, a setting in my Excel
2003 must have changed. When I tab from a cell after filling it in, it can
take as long as 10 seconds to move to the next next cell. Going through empty
cells has no delay. using the same speardsheet on a different computer has no
delays at all. Other users of the same sheet have no delays in functionality.
An older version of the sheet works fine as well. There must be a setting
that I have accidentally chnaged that is doing this, but have no idea which
one. I have changed the calculation settign to manual, then bakc to automatic
and also automatic except tables, no affect on this issue.
The computer has 2gb RMA, running XP Pro SP2, Excel 2003 wiht latest updates.
Any ideas what I can check?
Thanks,


Hi Jeff,

Just a thought ... IME showing page breaks slows down a worksheet, and
this is a per-workstation setting.

Tools | Options | View | Window options | Page breaks -- uncheck.

Problem as it seems, once a worksheet gets the idea that page breaks
need to be shown, I need to uncheck the setting frequently.
