    Error says merged cells have to be identically sized - but I'm not merging

    I opened a list from a website: http://chfs.ky.gov/os/oig/directories.htm
    I wanted to sort by column B, but get this message about the merged cells needing to be the same size? I'm not merging, just sorting!

    Any help is GREATLY appreicated!

    Thanks ya'll!

    Select all the cells on the worksheet (do Ctrl+A twice), Home tab > Merge & Center > Unmerge cells
