Arrow Keys not Working Properly

Hi,

I'm looking at a worksheet right now where data has been added in a
chart form. In between some of the columns are several hidden columns.
For some reason, whenever I arrow right or left, it moves two columns
over instead of one. For example, lets say columns B,C,E,F were hidden,
and I was in column G. If I hit the left arrow button, it moves to
column A instead of D! Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to
fix this? Thanks in advance for your help.

Could it be that that is one of the purposes of hiding??

Well, the columns that are hidden should definitely be skipped, bu
column D was unhidden and was skipped over as well

I tried that. I also tried rebooting my computer, and that didn't work
either. It only occurs in certain rows that have a different color
index but that shouldn't matter. Is there a way to define the sequence
of selection in a given row? Maybe I somehow need to reset that.
