    Merged Cell

    Hi

    When I try to copy and paste a column,
    I got the following error

    " We can't do that to a merged cell"

    What does that mean ?

    Thanks,
    James

    Re: Merged Cell

    It means that Excel can’t perform the action on a merged cell. Don’t use merged cells.
