= SUMMARY =

Cells cannot be merged vertically in a table in Microsoft Word for the Macintosh version 4.0 or 5.0.

The only workaround is to cut and paste the text from one cell into another as follows:


 * 1) Highlight the text of the top cell to be merged.
 * 2) From the Edit menu, choose Cut.
 * 3) Place the insertion point in front of the text of the cell below, where you want to merge the text.
 * 4) From the Edit menu, choose Paste.
