What happens when you try to type anything? Maybe the sheet is
protected?

Deb,

Is the worksheet protected? Go to the Tools menu, choose
Protection, and then Unprotect Worksheet.

It sounds like your worksheet and/or workbook is protected.

THANK YOU everyone for replying.....It was not protected... I messed with it
and discovered if I go to file and then click on Open it for Editing I can
work on it ???. Is there anyway to bypass this?

If you open it normally, does it work now?

My (off the wall guess)...

You were playing with some objects (pictures/comboboxes/checkboxes...) and you
had the Drawing toolbar open.

You clicked the arrow Icon (on the drawing toolbar) to select a bunch of
objects. But you didn't click on that arrow icon to turn it off -- turn excel
back to normal.

Any chance????
