how do i prevent continued highlighting cells when cursor moves?
Somehow the highlight mode is stuck, no matter where I go, the highlight area
can be from 1 cell to multiple of cells up, down, sideways from home cell. |

Try hitting the F8 key. If you see EXT in the statusbar (at the bottom), then
excel figures you're trying to extend your range by including more cells. Or your mouse could be sticking. Try gently banging on the buttons--including the wheel mouse if you have one.

matter what I am trying do it is trying to pick up the entire worksheet. I cannot set print area, sum or anything. any other ideas? "Dave Peterson" wrote: Try hitting the F8 key.
