text box weird behavior

[shrive22]

I have text boxes in excel worksheet's and they are behaving abnormally. for example:
1)when you click in the text box then use the arrow keys to move the cursor, it moves left if you press the right arrow key and right if you press the left arrow key.
2)when the cursor is at the end of the text and you press enter(to get another line) the cursor instead moves to the beginning of the line and then executes the new line.

Has anyone else seen this?
Does anyone know how to fix it?

Thanks,
john

Are you using Excel 2007? If so, have you installed SP1 - I'm pretty sure there was a fix for your first issue in there from memory.
