TRYING TO SORT, MERGED CELLS HAVE TO BE IDENTICAL?
 
HOW CAN I TELL WHICH ARE THE MERGED CELLS? HOW CAN I FIX THIS TO BEABLE TO
SORT?

Merged Cells are more than 1 column/row wide or tall. Someone applied a
merge cell format-usaully for a header row-but you do lose the sort. To
unmerge, click
top left corner of spreadsheet (between Column A and Row 1) This will select
whole sheet. Then click FormatCellsalignment tab and select 'merge cells"
OK. This will unmerge all cells and give you back your sort tool.
