a friend can not select menu items. when mouse moves around the screen,
cells are highlighted. It looks as if the left mouse button is
continuously
pressed, though mouse works in other programs fine. It is set to operate
as
a left handed mouse (left handed person). The mouse is new to my friend,
she
downloaded MS Intelimouse driver with no change. It does this with any
file
opened and with new file.
