Default Editing conditional formatting formula, arrow keys insert range.
Hit the F2 key before arrowing.

The status bar message will change from "Enter" to "Edit"

Whenever I am entering or editing a conditional formatting formula, if I try
to move to another place within the formula using the arrow keys, a range is
inserted into the formula rather than just moving my typing insertion point.
Is there any way to prevent this other than always using the mouse to
relocate within the formula?
