    what happened to my navigation keyboard shortcuts?

    i used to be able to put my cursor in a cell, then Shift-End-DownArrow to select the cells below it. now when i do a Shift-End, and before i can hit the down-arrow key, it selects a box of cells to the right and below that are on the screen. how to i get it back to the defaults? thanks.

    Have you changed your version of Excel? Works for me in Excel 2003.

    it worked fine just yesterday. haven't changed anything. wondering if i accidentally hit some combination of keystrokes that did something.

    check if Scroll Lock is on. toggle it on and off to see the effect.
    - i.s.z -
    CSE, aka Array aka { }, formulae are confirmed with CONTROL+SHIFT+ENTER.
    Replace commas ( , ) with semicolons ( ; ) in formulae, if your locale setting demands.
    All good ideas are courtesy resources from this forum as well as others around the web.

    check under settings to see what is selected for "on enter"
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Sounds like you have a Ctrl lock issue, sticky keys maybe?

    See if this helps

    i went into my PC setup (when it boots) and reset everything to factory defaults. that seems to have worked. thanks for your tips.
