[mso] Highlighting stuck on in Excel 97

I am forwarding a question that a colleague had posted to another list but
did not receive any replies.  Perhaps this list will be more suited.  Hope
someone can help.  Thanks.  Dianne
****Question follows******
Whether I enter a new spreadsheet or an old one, as soon as I click on
a cell, the highlight feature comes on and can not be deleted.  The
only way I can get out is to use the task manager.  Neither Alt nor
Ctrl + F4 work once the file is locked.  My mouse appears to be
working fine in all other programs and the keyboard does not have any
keys that are sticking down.  I checked for viruses - nothing shows.

I can move and edit comments with no prob.

I am using Windows XP and Excel 97.

Any ideas as to what is causing this?
