Help please... Excel 2010 problem: enter and tab keys not populating cells with text

retropg

Hi there,

Having problems with Excel 2010! It won't allow me to enter any text... the enter and tab keys work to move from cell to cell, but when I input any text and press either enter or tab, the text disappears and the cell selection stays the same! I'm using the same worksheet as yesterday and had no problems then; I've tested on a different file and on a brand new workbook and they have the same problem. I've looked at Excel options and the option to 'move selection down' after pressing Enter is selected so that's not the issue. It will allow me to copy and paste a cell but not to 'undo' the action or overwrite the contents of the new cell.

Any help greatly appreciated!
