I hope someone can help me. I must have done something by accident, but when I open any of my files in Excel, once I click on a box with my mouse, I cannot move to any other box, or even to the task bar, without highlighting every other box my mouse pointer moves across.

I am sure, or at least hope, it is a simple thing to fix, and I hope someone can understand what I am trying to explain. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I am stuck and cannot do any work.

Thanks

It's not something simple like you have a Control or Alt key stuck, is it? I get that problem when I use a KVM box to switch from computer to computer, I have to unplug the keyboard and plug it back in. It could also be that your keyboard is going bad, I guess... Check and see if the problem, or somthing similiar happens in other software...
