Mouse will not work in Excel

When I open Excel, the mouse is locked on a cell and whenever it moves it
highlights cells as if I am clicking and holding it.

Do you see "EXT" on the status bar?

If so, hit F8 key to get out of extended mode.

If you see "ADD" hit SHIFT + F8

If using a wheelie mouse, try tapping the roller up and down a few times.
