Remarks
The default value for the RetainSelBlock property is True.
This setting is applied to the entire workbook, including all sheets in the control.
When the RetainSelBlock property is set to True, the selected block of cells retains its highlighting. When the RetainSelBlock property is set to False, the application removes the highlighting from the selected block, but then restores it when the control regains the focus. This also applies to the active cell.
