Everytime I try to move through the cells with the arrow keys the cursor
actually moves in the opposite direction I tell it to. For example, I hit
the left arrow key and the cursor moves right! Has anyone ever seen this
before?

Thanks Bernard. I actually did try that but didn't make a difference.
Actually, the "SCRL" that shows up in the bottom right of the screen when
scroll lock is on never disappears even when I hit the scroll lock key. It's
like scroll lock is permanentally on.... any additional thoughts?
Thanks for your reply.

It sounds to me like you have a stuck key on your keyboard.

If you gently bang on that key, it may help.

Or try swapping keyboards.
