Status Bar box problem
 

The scroll lock in status bar shows "on" without a tick in the checkbox.
The only way I can overcome it is to turn the computer off, then start again.
Any suggestions ?

Scroll Lock is not an Excel issue.

Toggle scroll lock on/off from your keyboard.

Key just above the End key.

"Pause" "Break" and "ScrLk#"

Thanks for that Gord, but when I'm in Excel there is a status bar near the
task bar.This status bar contains about 15 listed on/off options and scroll
is one of them.

Hopefully you are running Excel 2007 which I know very little about.

Otherwise you have discovered a feature of which I was never aware.

BTW..........SCRL appears on the status bar if ScrLk is enabled on your
keyboard.

Is that what you're talking about?

I know of a few messages on the the status bar.

EXT, ADD, NUM, SCRL but nowhere near 15
