Single Cell Click selects 3 cells at a time

[Giovanna]

The issue I am having is as follows: I single click on one row and the two
rows below get selected at the same time. This also happens when I select a
cell - the two cells below get highlighted also. I can't get it to stop
doing this even when I close excel and re-open. This is an intermittent
problem. If someone has a solution that would be fantastic. I am using
Excel 2007 with XP.

Thanks.

hi
if 07, it might be a reported bug. some users have reported that adjusting
the zoom helps corrects the problem but it seems to be a temporary fix.
i have not heard if there is a permanent fix yet. be on the lookout.
you might also hit the F8 key. this turns "extended select" mode on and off.
it may or may not help.
