MS Office Forum / Excel / Worksheet Functions / March 2008How do I stop mouse from automatically selecting multiple cells
When I click, with mouse, it sometimes selects more than one cell, usually 2/3 cells below as well. How do I stop it doing this? Sounds like you may have a resolution problem or a zoom problem. Try adjusting both.

This behavior also happens to me, but has only happened in Excel 2007 and only seems to happen on cells where I have used the Merge and Center - MERGE ACROSS feature. Selecting with the cursor or tab doesn't select multiple cells. Do you have a similar experience? Back a few years ago there was a similar problem in Excel XP (2002/2003) and the problem was caused by the mouse driver. Updating the mouse driver fixed the problem back then. I am using a Microsoft Explorer trackball mouse and just updated the mouse driver. If this fixes the problem, I'll post back. >Sounds like you may have a resolution problem or a zoom problem.
