Do you see 'Extend Selection' on the status bar at the bottom?

If yes, press F8 once.

I'm using excel 2007
When I pick a cell in my work sheet, it selects 1-4 cells below also.
how do I stop this, it is not merging them and what I enter does not show in
each cell, but is does change some existing contents in the selected cells???
