[Solved] Spreadsheet problems

Post by rayaammon@gmail.com »

Greetings...this is my first time on this forum and am hoping someone has an answer for my problem. I have OpenOffice 4.1.4 and Windows 10 operating system. When I go into my spreadsheet it continually scrolls. It does that with old files and even when I open a new spreadsheet with no data in it. Any ideas???

I sounds like a hardware problem. Check the
- touchpad (if you have it)
- the mouse
- the keyboard

Sounds like a stuck mouse scroll wheel.
The cheap (financially) option is to take the mouse apart and clean it.
If that is too hard (some mice are almost built to keep one from being able to do that maintenance) or if it doesn't work, then replace the mouse (I got a replacement two weeks ago from the dollar store for my laptop)
OpenOffice 4.1.7, LibreOffice 7.0.1.2 on Windows 7 Pro, Ultimate & Windows 10 Home (2004)
