    Cannot stop Highlight

    Help!


    I am having trouble shutting down an Excel worksheet......each time I move the mouse over the worksheet, it only highlights more and more rows. I am down to row 60K plus and cannot figure out how to either stop the highlighting, or, to shutdown the workbook.

    Thanks in advance,

    Carla

    have you tried hitting the escape key, or using Alt + F to get to the file menu without the mouse?

    The major part of getting the right answer lies in asking the right question...


    Made your code more readable, use VBA tags (this automatically inserts [vba] at the start of your code, and [/vba ] at the end of your code) | Help those helping you by marking your thread solved when it is.
