1. Pressing Scroll Lock, followed by the Up arrow, Scroll Lock, and then the Down arrow keys.

We have an active Office 365 subscription. This problem is particularly frustrating because I'm currently working on a time-sensitive document, and I'm unable to click or select cells properly.
This issue isn't isolated to me; one other person in our office has experienced similar problems, while everyone else hasn't. However, I use the Office suite more frequently than anyone else here.
