Excel Sheet changes being duplicated on other sheets - weird behavior

Hi There,

I have a reasonably complex workbook that has just started behaving strangely.  For example, on one sheet, I merged a range of cells and entered a paragraph of text.  Bizarrely, the merged cells and entered text also shows up on multiple other sheets in the workbook.

How can this be?  I have never encountered changes being duplicated across sheets.  Is the Excel file corrupted?  Does anyone know how to un-corrupt the sheet, if that is what has happened?

Thanks

Actually...I probably did have multiple sheets selected.  Earlier, when I tried to copy one sheet, ALL sheets were copied...I guess for the same reason.  I have no idea how I copied all sheets...How do I un-select them all so I can just make changes to one?!
Right click on one of the selected sheets and select Ungroup Sheets.
Yep...nice one.  Thanks.

Well, at least I now know how to edit multiple sheets at once!

Thanks both of you for your help
