Select a Range with Shift + Click: Problem!

[MrsGKL]

Hello,

I have previously been able to select a range by selecting a single cell, holding down the shift key, then clicking another cell to select the entire range.

However, now, when I click the second cell, nothing happens (the range is not selected)?

Any ideas? I googled to no avail.

Thanks

P.S. This issue is happening on my boss's computer... I generally avoid using the mouse as much as possible, but I could not figure out why this was happening.
