I've created a quick schedule to give me the surface area of my different wall types so I can give those numbers to some metal manufacturers.  When I got to the walls that I wanted, I noticed several instances that had no area for them.  I have attached an image of my scheudle below. The wall in question is one I created as a perforated screen, that is suspended over the glass.  It is just the thickness of the metal panel with no other structure.

Whenever I try to click on one of the fields to "show" me the wall in question, it searches through all views and can not find any.  Are these walls phantoms floating somewhere in my model?  Is it safe to delete them from my schedule (and in turn delete the unshowable wall from my model?)  What would cause a wall to register no area...I would think that it would be a physical impossibility.  Any help is appreciated.
