I opened a document and I do not know what happened but
my cursor was only highlighting cells and I could not get
out of it. I had to use task manager to end Excel. The
cursor just highlights in whatever direction you move it
and it does not return to the arrow when you move it up
to the toolbar. What is this mode and how do I get out
of it or how did I get into it?
 
Hi
you probably have enabled the 'Extended' mode (indicated by 'Ext' in
the statusbar). Hit F8 to toggle betwenn 'normal' and 'extended' mode

Its a fault with MS's wheel mouse drivers. Try downloading new ones or if
yours are the latest, try re-applying the ones you have
