Help, the mouse in Excel (only) selects the cells below as soon as I move the mouse. Exactly like if I was holding down the SHIFT key at the same time.

And yet I just launched Excel. And restarted it 10 times.

Does anyone have advice or aspirin?

Best regards.

I just had the same problem, I solved it by holding down the central mouse button (SCROLL) for a long time.

Hello,
I have the same problem. Excel (2003) was working fine before this. Now, as soon as I click anywhere, Excel behaves as if I haven't released the mouse button and gets stuck on the current action (cell selection, sheet movement). Therefore, it's impossible to use the program. I hope someone has a solution.
Thank you for your help.

  Hello,
  I noticed the same problem. However, Antivirus and Spybot didn't yield any results. Have you already found a solution?
  Best regards

    Hello,
    I couldn't find any way to solve the problem. But I bought the latest version of Excel, and it doesn't happen anymore. Maybe just uninstalling and reinstalling the software would help...

    Yep, hi everyone
    For your mouse issue, go check in your computer's device manager and see if there are any conflicts between the drivers, like question marks in front of the driver names or something like that.
    Keep me posted
    PEACE

  For my part, I solved the problem by reducing the mouse movement speed.
  Go to Control Panel, then Mouse, then Pointer Options.
