Default How do I move around an Excel spreadsheet using arrow keys?

Oh my word, I wasted 30 minutes in the MS Excel help menus trying to find
this.

Thank you! Scoll key = cell by cell nav. I can now work again.

It was driving me crazy. Dear MS Help doc writers: keep is simple stupid,
if people search for "how to navigate with arrow key" that is probably what
they are trying to do, and don't need the info of how to important freaking
navigation wizards or lotus navigation tips.

Thank you for this posting!

Dear heaven, thank you. You are my hero for the day. It would have been a
nightmare to use the damn mouse all day on my sales spreadsheet. Thanks.

YES! Press the [Scroll Lock] key to release it.

Does that help?

This probably sounds like a dumb question, especially since I've been using
Excel for quite a while, but I've always used my arrow keys to navigate from
cell to cell, but now when I use the arrow keys, it causes the page to
scroll. Is there a setting that I inadvertently may have changed?
