When ever I try to select one cell on a Excel worksheet
multiple cells are highlighted. It's like the right mouse
button is been depressed, but it's not and the mouse is
working fine and I even tried a new one. Thanks.
 
Shawn,

Look to see if "EXT" appears in the status area in the lower left corner of
the Excel window. It is next to the Caps Lock and Number Key lock
indicators. If "EXT" is displayed, that means you have the "Extend
Selection" option turned on. This causes Excel to select a rectangular
bounded by the previous cursor position and wherever you click.

To turn this option off, press the <F8> key.
