I pressed some random buttons on my computer, now when I'm in excel I can't press the / key. Every time I press this key, it treats it like the ALT key-it sends me to the menus. Has anyone else had this problem? Do you know how to fix it???? Please help! Again, it is my slash key, or /.
I also just wanted to mention that I have checked all my settings (which are normal), and have tried every function key not only by itself, but also CTRL+Function and CTRL+SHIFT+Function to try and fix it. I also checked my macros to make sure I didn't create one by mistake. I didn't. I also checked my keyboard options, which are normal. On top of all of that, the / key seems to work perfectly fine in all other programs, and this is the only key with this problem, both on my number pad and the main keyboard.

Go to Tools > Options > Transition tab and uncheck or change "Microsoft Excel Menu key." It's an option for people who used to use Lotus 123, in which / called up the menus.

lol you may have broken your keybord. you could try shutting it down and restarting. also try using the key in a different application and see what it does (it will tell you if you broke it)
