error selecting cells -excel 2007

[cathyh]

in excel 2007
when i'm in page layout view, there are certain cells that when i click on
them, multiple cells become selected-- 3 or 4 at a time. they are NOT
merged. other times, when i click on the same cells, only one cell is
selected.

when i'm in normal view, clicking on these same cells, only single cells
select as clicked on as they should.

any ideas?

Hi,

Is it possible that you are clicking in the Header or Footer area of Page
Layout? There really are no cells there, those are the Left, Center and
Right headers and footers.

no - not in the header/footer area.

This is a bug in Excel 2007 when in page layout view.

Try changing the Zoom level slightly up or down a couple of percent.
