Try setting the Zoom level a little lower or higher.

The multiple cell selection is a bug in Excel 2007.

The zoom-changing appears to fix it.

A few postings have made the suggestion and it seems
to work.

Here is one such posting.

I have received replies to this advice indicating the zoom change clears it
up.

When I click on one cell in Excel, the 4 or 5 below that cell often get
highlighted as well and I have to type in one of them to remove the
highlight. This is rather annoying as if I hit delete (to delete the info in
the first cell) it will delete all of the info. I have only seen this with
the new version of Excel 2007.
