Split a merged cell in word

E

Elizabeth

I need to be able to split a merged cell in Word so I can add another column.
When I use the Split cell button, I can select the number of columns, but
the columns for that row are then independent of the rest of the table grid.
I've tried resizing the borders for that row to match the others, but I still
have to resize that row manually. Is there a way to split the merged cell to
make it rejoin the rest of the grid?

Hi Elizabeth,

Not easily, as far as I can see. You could try
"Table > AutoFit > Distribute columns evenly"
"Table > AutoFit > AutoFit to contents"
