Er, there's no need to shout!

... THE EXCEL SHEET, MOSTLY.

Microsoft Excel is a part of Microsoft Office and has no connection with OpenOffice. If you need help with Excel, you should look for it elsewhere. Or are you talking about creating and editing spreadsheets in OpenOffice (Calc) instead?

IN A RUSH TO MAKE CHANGES ON THE SHEET, i CLICKED SOMETHING AND NOW THE FIRST PART OF THE PAGE HAS ARROWS ...

It may be that you have accidentally toggled on the Detective, which can show which cells are used as parameters by a formula elsewhere ("precedents") and which formulae elsewhere use it as a parameter ("dependents"). As you say, these are indicated by arrows between the cells.

IT SAYS GO TO FORMATTING AND CLICK OPTIONS AND THEN OFF. THERE IS NO OFF.

I'm not sure where you might have found that instruction.

HOW DO I GET THESE ANNOYING THINGS OFF MY SHEET?

Go to Tools | Detective > | Remove All Traces.

I trust this helps.

Brian,
This "Detective" interested me, so I took a look at my AOO 4.1.3 for Linux version and it does not have a Tools | Detective option. Is this OS-dependent or is it not OpenOffice?
