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.
