Excel 2003 mis-displaying a value as repeating itself

[J.D. Robbie]

When a user enters a "1" and exits the cell, the cell
displays as "111111111111111111111".
The cell is defined as Number, zero decimals, with (1234)
formating.

Any clues to why this may be occuring, or is there a
solution ?

Note: The spreadsheet was originally creating in Excel
2000.
