Bizarre problem with Excel shortcuts...

[hybridremix]

This happens every once and a while, and it's incredibly frustrating.

While working in Excel my shortcuts will suddenly start doing bizarre things. For example, Ctrl+Z will stop undoing, and will start filling in adjacent cells with +1 modifier formulas. Ctrl+S will stop saving and will start trying to merge cells. One shortcut [drawing a blank which one] will adjust the size, color, and font of a cell to an enormous yellow Arial, for now apparent reason. Some shortcuts are unaffected [Ctrl+X, Ctrl+C, and Ctrl+V still all work as normal]. I have to kill Excel and reload it back up to "reset" the shortcuts so the program will behave as normal.

Anyone have any clue what this is? It sounds like I'm accidentally changing some shortcut profile, but I wouldn't have a clue how.

do you have any other files open that might contain macros with keyboard shortcuts?

There is one workbook that very well might. It's not a workbook I created so I don't know any of its details, but the person who created it has a tendency to use macros. I know nothing about them, though, so I have no idea if they have keyboard shortcuts attached to them.
