If you have shared the workbook, from the tools menu, then I don't think you
can merge cells. To do so, you first have to unshare the workbook.

No, the sheet is not protected. It is on the network and 3 other people have
access to the folder and can therefore make changes. I did check and no one
else is working in this file today (just me).

I created a spreadsheet and had no problems adding rows and merging cells
until today. Now the Merge Cells button is grayed out on my toolbar, and
the
spreadsheet will not let me merge cells. I have hit "ENTER" to "exit the
editing mode" as per the MS website, but that didn't do squat. Please
help.
