Default Excel 2007 dividing by 100 when it's not supposed to.

Excel 2007 has started automatically dividing new values I type in to cells
by 100. I can't tell if it's actually changing the value, or just the
presentation. I have reformatted to General and number and changed decimals
allowed. Nothing changes it. I have automatically calculate percentages
turned off. Though I suppose turning that on could solve the problem, I
prefer to have the actual values presented. If I format the cell as text
ahead of time, it will keep the proper value. If I reformat the wrong value
to text, it stays wrong. Please help!

I finally searched for "100" and found the answer in the forum archives.
Turns out I had fixed decimals on. Thanks everyone!
