Recently when I want to highlight one cell or one row in a spreadhseet
(Office Excel 2007) I find the cursor will only highligh 3 or 4 cells vertically, or 3 or 4 rows vertically. Suggestions to remedy this pelase? I've tried re-loading and restarting Excfel but that does not fix the problem. |

Sounds like you are in Extended Mode. Press F8 to toggle this mode off -- Regards Roger Govier "Chris L 99" wrote in message ...

Try setting the Zoom level a little lower.
The multiple cell selection is a bug in Excel 2007. The zoom-changing appears to fix it. I don't have 2007 but many postings have made the suggestion and it seems to work.

Hi Gord
I hadn't noticed postings about that. I haven't experienced it in 2007 myself, but I seldom change zoom levels. -- Regards Roger Govier "Gord Dibben" <gorddibbATshawDOTca wrote in message ...
