Default troubleshoot merge cells - checked protection. Why is icon dim?

Check to see if your workbook is shared. "tools", "share workbook"

I'm trying to merge cells in an existing shared workbook, but the icon is
dim, and in the format cells dialog box, the merge cells box is checked, but
dim. I turned off any protection or cell locking, so why won't it let me
merge, and what've I got to do to allow me to merge cells?
Thanks in advance for any help
