In Excel, the sheet moves instead of the cell pointer.
 
I have messed up my excel document. When I try to scroll up, down or to
either side, the selected cell does not move but the entire worksheet does
move. It appears that the selected cell is locked in but the worksheet moves
around it. I don't know what button I pushed to do this but really need to
have it working correctly.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
thanks, bob

Hi Bob
you probably have hit the Scroll-Lock key- Just hit it again to toggle
between the modes

Your Scroll Lock key is enabled. Hit it once.

Second to the right from F12 key on most keyboards.
