Default Shift + arrow to highlight and copy cells

Normally, I like to use the keystroke method of copying cells by copying a
cell, then hold Shift down while I do the arrow key. (it's easier on my wrist
than hold and dragging). But, for some reason, now when I hold the Shift and
do the arrow, it is not moving. Anyone know what happened?

Never mind. I've got an answer now. Mike H. answered me in the General Excel
questions. Way to go, Mike!

Check whether Scroll Lock key is ' ON ' if it is ' ON ' Make it ' OFF ' and
try...

If this post helps, Click Yes!
