Like Arceedee, my first thought is sticking keyboard. Does this happen when
you use both the down arrow in the arrows group and if you turn Num Lock off
and use the down arrow in the number pad. If not, and it only happens when
using the down arrow in the arrow buttons group, it could be a simple sticky
key problem.

Also, is it all workbooks, or just one in particular. There might actually
even be a macro that is causing this. It would be odd, but not impossible if
someone had a need for such a function when using the workbook or a workbook
that the one you've gotten is based on.

I am using Excel 2007 and whenever I press my down arrow on the keyboard it
moves down one cell and over one cell to the right. I am trying to figure out
what setting has made it this way.

Does anyone know how I can change this so that when I hit the down arrow it
goes down one cell only?
