Default selecting a cell - really need help


Hi Jason,

Is there a real need for the cells on the right to be merged?
I don't like merged cells but thought I'd do a couple of quick Googles
& see what others think, eg

I came across the below and think Barry Katcher's explanation is very
apt & I agree with his suggestion:

"the technical explanation of what is happening is this: merged cells
suck! They're much more trouble than they're worth. Before trying to
figure out code to circumvent your problems, you might want to try
this: unmerge your cells, and try formatting them to
FormatCellsAlignmentHorizontalCenter Across Selection. Practically
the same results, without the hassle. "

It seems the general consensus is to remove any merged cell formatting
& with it your problems will disappear. Probably not what you wnat to
hear but I hope it helps,
