My guess is that some how the scroll area got set so you can't scroll there.
Worksheets("sheetName").scrollArea=""
should set things right.
i've come across something very odd on a worksheet i've inherited.
column A is missing.
it is not hidden. i have highlighted all and done 'unhide' columns. nothing.
it is not tiny. i have highlighted all and done 'column width' = 10. nothing.
i know it's there... if i put my cursor into B1 and press the left arrow, the cursor moves to A1, i can just see the blinking end of the cursor and can make changes to data in the column A cells.
where did it go?!?

ah. hadn't thought of that... but, there were no macros/code in this file before i got my hands on it.
tried adjusting the scroll area as suggested just in case it was 'left over' somehow, but to no avail.
Try copying the sheet and pasting it into another (new, dumpable) workbook.
From your worksheet menu click on Window > Unfreeze Panes.
Then select any cell and hit the Home key.
ha. brilliant. that was much too simple... why didn't i think of it!
Even ten years after this question was posed, these answers are still helping, it worked for me.
Many thanks
