Is a macro ok?
Option Explicit
Sub testme()
Dim rptWks As Worksheet
Dim wks As Worksheet
Dim oRow As Long
Dim iCtr As Long
Dim myCell As Range
Set wks = Worksheets("sheet1")
Set rptWks = Worksheets.Add
rptWks.Range("a1").Value = wks.Name
oRow = 1
For Each myCell In wks.UsedRange.Cells
If myCell.MergeArea.Cells.Count 1 Then
If myCell.MergeArea.Cells(1).Address = myCell.Address Then
oRow = oRow + 1
rptWks.Cells(oRow, 1).Value = myCell.MergeArea.Address
End If
End If
Next myCell
End Sub
If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at:

Sorry Dave should have made it a little clearer - I don't want to simply
'unmerge' the offending cells as I data will subseqently be out of line when
I subsequently sort.

If you want to unmerge the cells (without regard to where it is), you can select
the whole range (the entire worksheet???) and
Format|Cells|Alignment tab|uncheck Merge Cells

I have a workbook of some 13 thousand rows - I've just tried to do a sort
only to find sort cannot function as there are 1 or more merged cells. Is
there anyway I can 'find' the merged cells rather than checking each row by
row?
