Hello,
I am using Excel 2000. I am tring to move from one cell to another in Excel by using the arrow keys on my keyboard but nothing happens. I was always able to move up, down, right or left using the arrow keys but this problem just started out of the blue.

Hi DaisyE
Just check whether your SCROLL LOCK is in ON position Winners are losers who got up and gave it one more try. -Den­nis DeYoung

Yes, that works, but people also need to use the number pad while in excel. Leave it to Microsoft to have such a flaw in their software.

The num-lock key is used for the numpad, not the scroll lock key.

I have the full size flat Mac keyboard. It's the F14 key to lock/unlock the scroll.
