Default Enter key misbehavior

When I press <Enter the cursor does not go to the beginning of the next
line. I am running Excel 2002 on this machine. All other machines with
Excel (Office XP or Office XP Pro) work fine ... when pressing enter it goes
to the next line and the beginning of the line (if I used <Tab or shift-Tab
to move across cells).

How can I make this one work? (Tools--Options--Edit--Move selection
after Enter does not work. It only allows moving one cell Down, Right, Up or
Left.)

You don't say what it actually does do when you press Enter. If Tools -
Options - Edit tab - "Move selection after Enter" isn't set, it'll just sit
still when you press Enter. Could that be it? If not, try the usual fixes
for a sick Excel. try the stuff at "Excel acts generally goofy" at
