Default Cell Won't Accept Numerical Data

I'm trying to edit one cell, and Excel 2003 refuses to accept any changes.
The problem with the cell is that it keeps mis-aligning. I've tried clearing
it, and that works, but when I re-enter the data, it insists on entering the
data the same way. I've tried editing in the fx function bar, but the
program still insists on entering the same data the same way, that is,
mis-aligned. I've tried turning off the enable auto complete for cell
values, and that didn't help. Then I tried following some MS troubleshooting
steps: double-click the cell, delete the data (so far, so good), then alt +
enter, and then enter again, to begin entering the data. Well now, I can't
enter any data, period. The cell no longer accepts any data. The rest of my
sheet looks great, except for my first numerical entry, which is screwing
everything up. The only other thing I can think of is to do the whole sheet
over, that is, start with a new document. Can anyone help me out on this?
Thanks.
