The information in this article applies to:

• Microsoft Excel for Windows, versions 5.0, 5.0c
• Microsoft Excel for Windows 95, version 7.0

SUMMARY

In Microsoft Excel versions 5.x and 7.0, when you choose the Drawing Selection button, the mouse pointer changes to an arrow, not a thin plus sign.

This is expected behavior.

NOTE: This behavior differs from the behavior of other drawing tool buttons. When you choose other drawing tool buttons, the mouse pointer changes to a thin plus sign.
