The Merge Across command joins cells across columns, but not rows. Merge & Center does the same thing as Merge Cells, but it also centers the text horizontally. If the cells contain text, only the value in the upper left cell will survive the merge. Merge Cells combines all selected cells into one cell. The Alignment group on the home tab of the ribbon provides three merge options: Merge & Center, Merge Across, and Merge Cells.īefore we try these on our main table, let's look at what each command does. In a case like this, you can easily merge cells. So, we could combine these cells to visually simplify the layout. For example, Feature Y is not offered in Plans A, B, or C, and feature Z is not applicable to Plan A or B. One thing you might want to do with a table like this is combine cells with like values. Here we have a simple table meant to summarize the features of a hypothetical service plan. In this lesson we'll look at how to align text across multiple columns or rows by merging cells.
