You don't change the plus sign to an arrow in Excel.

The paintbrush icon will select the cells you point it to.

If it is wasting your time, do not select cells you don't want.

The plus sign also changes to a paintbrush icon when format painter is
selected and it's wasting my time because it doesn't accurately select the
cells I want.
