Default I can not stop the cursor from selecting cells

For some reason, when I go to excel, the cursor continues to select the cells
and I am not able to escape this function. It just follows my cursor and I
am unable to do anything.

Are you using the mouse to move around in the worksheet?

Maybe your mouse buttons are stuck.

Try gently banging on the mouse buttons--including the wheel mouse if you have
one.
