[mso] Excel cursor is flying to extreme cell

I guess most of us know we can get the cursor in Excel to jump to the
top-most, right-most, left-most, bottom-most cell containing data by
pressing End-Arrow (Arrow in whatever direction you want to go).

I saved my workbook last night. Today, no matter which arrow I press to go
to just *one* cell in some direction (say one cell to the right), it locates
the right-most cell with data and goes there. Ditto in the other directions.
The Alpha keys do not type anything into the cells.

I opened Word, and Word works just fine, telling me that the keyboard works.
Sorry for mentioning a competitor's product, but next I opened Lotus and was
able navigate normally, enter data into the cells, etc. I then opened
Access, and was able to navigate through the tables normally. It looks like
Excel is the application affected.

Lastly, since my keyboard is programmable, I tried a standard keyboard
(non-programmable), and the navigation problem still persists. IF I have
switched a setting somewhere to do this, where would I undo it?

Thanks.

Robert
