Default Excel 2007: Selecting multiple objects by drawing a selection box

I want to select multiple drawing objects in Excel in Office 2007. The
previous version of Excel (2003) allowed you to draw a box around the objects
that you wanted to select. This option was selected by clicking the pointer
icon at the bottom left hand corner of the screen. This option seems to have
disappeared in Excel 2007. Can anyone advise?

Also, I previously changed the length of a drawing line by dragging one end
while holding the cntl key. This kept the original direction of the line and
just changed the length. Holding cntl now rotates the line - does anyone
know the new keyboard stroke for this function?
