Default How do I stop Excel from changing simple numbers to their 1/100th.

I'm working with the latest service pack of Excel 2000.
Every number I enter into any blank cell becomes that number's 100th decimal
value. For example, typing "2" in a cell results in "0.02" when I leave the
cell.
This did not used to happen, but I don't know what I did to make it happen,
nor what to do to stop it from happening.
