Merging Cells
Sometimes, you may need to unify several rows or columns by a single horizontal or vertical cell containing information common for these cells. To do this, you can either span a cell across several rows or columns, or merge several cells into one (horizontally or vertically).
The difference between these two option is that when you merge cells, the content of all merged cells is merged as well and remains in the resulting cell, and when you span a cell across several rows or columns, only the content of the spanned cell remains - the content of the cell to the right of the spanned cell is deleted.
To merge cells, right-click in a cell and select the needed option from the context menu:
- To merge the cell with the cell to the right, click the
Merge Cells Horizontally icon.
- To merge the cell with the cell above, click the
Merge Cells Vertically icon.
