Merging and Splitting Cells

You can select adjacent cells, then merge them into a single cell. Conversely, you can take a large cell and divide it into individual cells.

Merging Cells

1. Select the adjacent cells.

2. Choose \<emph\>Table - Merge Cells\</emph\>.

Splitting Cells

1. Place the cursor in the cell to be split.

2. Choose \<emph\>Table - Split Cells\</emph\>.

   A dialog allows you to split the cell into two or more cells, horizontally or vertically.
