I seem to have Scroll Lock on, and cant work out how to turn it off.
Running MS Excell 2004, a green light is on next to SCRL at the bottom of
the page, and the arrow keys scroll the screen instead of moving between
cells. On a PC (sorry, recent convert from the darkside), there's a Scroll
Lock key on the keyboard which toggles this on and off. How do i do it on my
Mac Book?

try either double clicking on the scrl green button and see it it
toggles off. or if you have an extended keyboard hold shift key down and
tap on th f14 key which on most extended has scroll lock in small print
above the F14.  on a PowerBook and perhaps a MacBook Pro hold shift FN
(for Function) and then F14. see if either of those work.  also go sytem
Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > then click on keyboard shortcuts.

look at ver bottom and be sure all is toggled on (the dot is filled in
in the circle beside it).
