# Merging and Unmerging Cells

You can select adjacent cells, then merge them into a single cell. Conversely, you can take a large cell that has been created by merging single cells, and divide it back into individual cells.

When you copy cells into a target range containing merged cells, the target range gets unmerged first, then the copied cells are pasted in. If the copied cells are merged cells, they retain their merge state.

## Merging Cells

1. Select the adjacent cells.

2. Choose Format - Merge Cells - Merge Cells. If you choose Format - Merge Cells - Merge and Center Cells, the cell content will be centered in the merged cell.

## Splitting Cells

1. Place the cursor in the cell to be split.

2. Choose Format - Merge Cells - Split Cells.
