Excel arrow keys stop working (NOT SCROLL LOCK)

Excel Office Pro Plus 2013 on windows 7 64 bit.

This has happened since I loaded it.. older excel never has this issue on same host.

When I am working in a spreadsheet and moving around with arrow keys.. they stop working randomly.

It is NOT scroll lock... I can turn scroll lock on and off no effect.

IF I change to another tab then back to the same tab .. the arrow keys work again!!!

This happens in many spreadsheets... seems like the larger they are the worse it it.. VERY annoying and makes it unusable!!

I have all the latest patches and have rebooted .. this has been going on since I loaded excel.. I was hoping a patch would fix it.. 

but it keeps happening randomly... 

ANY ideas?

Hi Ken,

Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.

Since the issue is more relate to the end-user, I'd like to move it to Excel IT pro forum.

The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us.

Thanks for your understanding.
