Excel Spreadsheet has frozen?

I use quite a few different spreadsheet. Recently they have all got the same problem. If I want to put a number in one cell and then move down to the one below it and put another number in it. When I press the down arrow it actually stays on the same cell and makes me put the next number in the original cell. So instead of putting i.e. a 3 in the first cell and then an 8 in the next one it makes me put in 38 etc. Can anyone tell me how to unlock it ad go back to normal? I have tried 'freezing/unfreezing' the cells.

    If you are having the same issue on multiple workbooks, then it is likely that Excel itself has become corrupted. I would suggest you either try to do a repair using the original installation disk, or uninstall and reinstall Excel.
