I have a blank excel page open. If I select D3 to D15 it will change color
to a light blue. Now, if I want to highlight another cell, I would hold the
CTRL and then select the select such as H11 to H16 and that is also suppose
to turn blue. Problem is, this is not happening at all. I am using
Microsoft Office 2007. I am unable to select multiple rows or colums at the
same time to create a chart. Any suggestions?

Color shown is very faint...

Select as you described... type Test and press CTRL-ENTER...
You should get Test in all selected cells
