selecting a cell
 

I seem unable to select a single cell, or a single row--click on one in the
normal manner, and the two below also highlight, then delete or whatever
command is given. If I input a number/text, that just goes into the one
cell. tapping F8 increases this to two wide and three high automatically
selected.

Also, very slow to do almost anything.

Thanks

Pat,

Are you by any chance using Excel 2007? If so there is a known bug that
causes multiple cell selection and I understand this has been reported to
Microsoft.

If you take the zoom level up and down this is reported to clear the problem.

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.
