In Excel when you click a cell in spreadsheet and move the mouse

[Guest]

In Microsoft Excel 2003 (Windows XP after installation of 2nd pack), when
you click a cell in spreadsheet and move the mouse, multiple cells are
selected. Repeatedly clicking in other cells continues to select cells
instead of clearing the current selection. I have tried to use F8, but there
is no EXT.

Thank you very much. It was the setting of the mouse - scrolling.

Can you be more explicit as to what you actually changed to fix it, and is your
problem description still correct.

I don't have Excel 2003, but I would be surprised if it makes a difference.
(could you email me separately, just in case I need more information
than you supply).
