entering data using tab
 

At one time when I pushed tab after typing data into a cell, my cursor would
move to the next column over in the same row, making that cell the active
cell. so entering in A1 -- tab moved me to B1. All is good and is what
expected.

For some reason if I enter in A1 -- tab my active cell is now H1. It is
driving me nuts. I cannot find any reference in help how to fix this, and I
don't know what I did to break it. Entering in B1 -- tab also takes me to
H1. Once I get to G1 when I tab I now end up in M1. There seems to be no
reason behind this. Any help would be appreciated. I use Excel 2003.
