Default Spreadsheet Dilemma


This website for Excel tips seems to be a wonderful place to learn and
enhance skills in Excel but I have not found a solution to my dilemma.
I have somehow locked my spreadsheet as if it were on Scroll Lock. I
did something with the mouse that caused it to happen but I have not
been successful in any attempt to unlock the spreadsheet. The cursor
goes out of control in either direction right to left as well as up and
down, selecting all cells from the starting point of Row 469, Column C.
There is a box which shows how many rows and columns have been selected
from that starting point (65057R x 2C). The only way I can get out of
the spreadsheet is to use Control-Alt-Delete and End the Task in the
Windows Task Manager. I have rebooted the computer but so far nothing
has worked. None of the keystrokes work -- can't type, can't use the
arrow keys, can't Escape, can't use any of the toolbar functions or
Help. This problem continues in any spreadsheet I open and the cursor
continues to move up and down even if I am not currently using the
spreadsheet but continue to have it open, such as now while I am on the
Internet.
