I want to merge the cell in the table

Sozhavendhan M

Dear Friends,

I need something like a table mentioned below.

The first row Cells (1,2)(1,3)(1,4) are merged and inner borders are made transparent.

Kindly guide me if its possible are if we need any plugins to achieve this.

	XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXX XXXXXXX	x XXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX	x XXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX	x XXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX
. . . . . . . . . . . .	XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX	XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
. . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . .

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Soz

Sozhavendhan,

If you are in edit mode and you've got the table toolbar open, the 6th button from the right allows you to do this.

Try selecting the cells you want to merge and then click on that button. When you select the cells, you will see that several cells get selected that you don't want to merge. Ignore that and click the merge button anyway.

You should see that only the cells you want to merge are actually merged.

Cheers.
