Alright dudes,

something wrong with MS Excel. this doesn't always happen, but occasionally when i click on a cell in excel, it acts as though i've held my finger on the mouse button. every where u move your mouse it selects everything in it's path.

there's no way to unselect it. so, i basically ctrl + alt + delete and kill the mofo.

annoyin as .

any one know a patch r anything ?

Re-install Excel/Office. And get the office updates. Also update Windows XP. This should sort it.

That kind of thing really doesn't sound like an actual bug. I get the same effect if I hold down the SHIFT key and click on cells. Sure your SHIFT key isn't stuck down somehow? Reinstalling office seems pretty drastic at this point.
DJAntSmith
Yeah but reinstalling only takes about 5 minutes so i'd hardly call it drastic. Plus its good to get updates for office.
UglyDave
well, it hapend to the guy sittin next to me also. he reinstalled and he still gets it.

t'is a bollox!
