You can combine two or more
cells in a table to make one large cell. This is useful if you
want to display a title across the top or down the side of a
table. You can also delete rows or columns from a table. Here
are the steps for both procedures.
Merging Cells

Enter text in the
table from the last lesson so it looks like the one below.
2. Position the mouse I-beam
over the first cell (Subject, on your table) you want to merge with other cells
3.
Drag
the mouse I-beam down until you highlight all the cells you want to
merge (the entire left-most column on your table)
4.
Click Table. Click Merge Cells.
5.
The cells combine to create one
large cell. To deselect the merged cell, click outside the
table.

Click
the Undo button on the Standard Toolbar to revert back to the
table before you merged the left-most column
Deleting Rows and
Columns
