You can merge several adjacent table cells at any time. They are then merged into a single cell.
To do so, proceed as follows:
1. | Select the cells to be merged. |
2. | Choose the ribbon command Table | group Merge and split | Merge cells . |
The cells are now merged into one cell.
In this process, the contents of the original cells are not lost; they are combined in the resulting cell. The content of each original cell is placed in a separate paragraph.
