You really don't have to find anything!
Just follow Dave's instructions and select the *entire* sheet,
<<<"(or ctrl-a (twice in xl2003) to select all the cells)"
and then *unmerge*.

Ahhhh...is see now. The check mark was gray so that means there are some
cells that are merged and some that are not. I guess the question now is
how
do I find which cells are merged and "unmerge" them?
Thanks

You have at least one merged cells (multiple cells made to look like
just one
cell).
If you don't think you're using merged cells, maybe you can get rid of
them.
Save your workbook (just in case you don't like the results).
Select the range to fix (or ctrl-a (twice in xl2003) to select all the
cells)
Format|cells|Alignment tab|uncheck merge cells
(If that checkbox had a checkmark, then the selection was merged. If
the
checkmark was grey, then you had a mixture of merged cells and "regular"
unmerged cells.)

cells? I
did nothing that I know of to prompt this message. No matter what I

won't do it. This is Excel 97. Can someone tell me why this is
happening?
