Default Opening at Unwanted

I've hit some combination of keys that makes my workbook open at a specific
cell everytime.
When I close, I am always at another location and hit Save.
But when I open, it goes back to that random cell everytime.
I've not done a macro to direct it to do this - just fast/fat fingers and
did something that I can't undo.
Help?

Default Opening at Unwanted

If you open excel in safe mode, then use file|open to open your workbook, does
it behave the same.

Close excel
windows start button|Run
Excel /safe
then file|open

If it behaves the same way, I don't have a suggestion.

But if it behaves the way you want, then I'd look for macros once more.
(Starting excel in safe mode is one way to avoid macros).

Debra Dalgleish shows how to clean up all the remnants of macros. You can use
those instructions to look for macros:
