To merge cells in a table

1. Select the cells in a table that you want to merge using one of the following methods:
   • Select a cell, and hold down SHIFT and click inside another cell to select those two cells and all the cells between them.
   • Click inside a selected cell, drag to the cells you want to select, and release.

   The resulting merged cell must be rectangular.

2. Click Merge Cells on either the Table ribbon contextual tab or Table toolbar. If you want to create more than one merged cell, use one of the following options:
   • All: Merges all cells in a rectangular selected range.
   • By Row: Merges the cells horizontally by removing the vertical gridlines and leaving the horizontal gridlines intact.
   • By Column: Merges the cells vertically by removing the horizontal gridlines and leaving the vertical gridlines intact.
3. Start typing to enter text in the new merged cell, or press ESC to remove selection.
