From some reason, in Excel, I am no longer able to click on an arrow and get drop down menus to stay open. I can see them briefly, but they go away before I can click on my selection. These are spreadsheets I have used for years, and this problem just started. I have tried shutting down and re-opening, and opening a new spread sheet. Problem persists. ???
Thanks for any help you can give.

I do not know your version of Excel or the file environment.
I don't even know what kind of Excel file is causing this problem.
Therefore it is always an advantage if you insert a file (without sensitive data) and explain your problem.
But it reminds me of the old problem with the Drobox or OneDrive.
It was enough to close Dropbox/OneDrive via the task manager and the error was gone. (Unfortunately only permanently when Dropbox is uninstalled).
There are of course other possible causes, but more information would be needed.
Thank you for your understanding and patience
I would be happy to know if I could help.

Thanks again for your help! I did check the "All" box under "show objects". "All" was selected. I unselected and re-selected it. Didn't make any difference. I got disgusted and didn't use Excel for a day. Today, it's working just fine!
I tend to think of computers as "magic", since I don't really understand them. Thanks for waving your magic wand in my direction!
