How can I move the active cell in Excel with the arrow keys?

Some setting has changed in my Excel 2000 so that when I use the arrow keys
the worksheet scrolls rather than the active cell moving. What do I have to
do to get the arrow keys to move the active cell?

Hi Chuck,

Try turning the scroll lock key off.

Norman:

How do you spell "Duhhhhh...."?

Yes, my scroll lock key was on.

I never use it, so it didn't occur to me that that was the problem.

A hint.

If your Excel Status bar is visible you will see SCRL down on bottom right
corner.
