Default How do I locate merged cells

Try This:

Use CTRL - F to open a Find And Replace Dialog Box
Click the options button
Make sure that the Find What Box is empty
Click the Format Button
Go to the Alignment Tab
Remove ticks from Wrap Text and Shrink To Fit
They will be greyed out but a second click will remove the tick
Click the Merge Cells to remove the grey shadow and leave the tick in a
clear box
OK back to the Find And Replace Screen
Click Find All Button
All merged cells are shown in the lower pane
Click on each one to go to them one at a time

Hope this helps!! Enjoy

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?
