Arrow Keys Acting Wierd
 

This is an odd question, I know, but recently my Excel program has
undergone a change and I don't know how to reverse it.

Entering in my store data, I need to be able to rapidly move from cel
to cel. Used to be I could hit my arrow key and it would immediately
move me to the next cel, be that up, down, left, or right.

Something happened the other day. I opened up the program, filled in
one cell, and hit the arrow button. Instead of moving to the next cel,
it moved the status bar at the bottom of the page, scrolling me over to
the next column without actually moving the selected cel. I've been
working in Excel for several years and never hit this behavior before.
Can anyone assist?

Your scroll lock key is probably on. Turn it off. (It is
typically located above the Home and End keys.)

You have pressed the scroll lock key. Press it again to unlock it.
