Usually, in spreadsheets, activating Scroll Lock changes the cursor keys from a mode in which they move the selection about, to a mode where they scroll the page instead. This can be useful if you need to scroll down to see, say, a total line without losing the cell you have selected. I don't have an installation of LibreOffice handy to see if it behaves this way, but I'd be surprised if it didn't. --
