Scroll Speed for Excel

Ken wanderer — Wed, 27 Apr 2005 10:16:40 GMT

Hello,
I have an annoying problem with Excel
(who hasn't;).
I am trying to select some cells, and if I have to scroll down it goes way too fast and can't get it to only select the first say 50-100 cells in a column; Instead the program scrolls to 500 or 1,000 too fast.

You could try some of the sort-cut keys instead.

shift + END down-arrow for a contiguous column of data.

shift + PgDn for screen at a time selection, etc.

Thanks but that didn't work for what I am trying to do.
I want to highlight a range of data.
The method you suggest works but not if a cell is highlighted.
For some reason it is not scrolling as fast now. Maybe it is a bug in the program.
Thanks for the try.

Will try annoyances.com site to see if anything there on this.
Seems like it is not super scrolling now like earlier today....
Thanks
