Bryce and list, happy Easter! I can answer your first question,  Merged cells in excel I supposed to be like that. I am taking a class in Excel and have found that was easy to navigate, just press the tab or arrow keys to move away from them. If you need to unmerge  a cell or group of cells, look on the home tab (press alt H) for merge and center. There should be an option and not submenu unmerged cells.
