Unmerge Cells Excel Mac Create A

I cant for the life of me figure out any way to unmerge them, other than one by one in the formatting palette.

The worksheet Im working in, though, has over 12,000 items, and I have to find a faster way.

When I select a whole column or worksheet, etc., Excel only gives me the option to merge them all into one cell, not to unmerge them all.

And after I do merge them, all of the data is lost (except for the top-left cell) when I unmerge them again.

When I click the box it says Cannot merge overlapping ranges.

At the bottom of that section, under Indentation and Merge, you will see a checkbox that you need to checkuncheck, depending on whether you want to mergeunmerge.

If it is grayed out, then you need to make sure that when you are selecting the cells that you want to mergeunmerge, that you are holding down the SHIFT key, and NOT the Command key.

Unmerging cells that were previously merged retains all the data in the new top-left cell.

Here are some restrictions: You cant merge nonadjacent cells or cells from different areas of the tablefor example, cells from the body and the header.

If a cell has never been merged with another cell, it cant be unmerged.

Choose Format Table Merge Cells (from the Format menu at the top of your screen).

These are the results of merging cells: If only one of the cells contains content prior to merging, the merged cell retains the content and formatting of that cell.

If multiple cells contain content before merging, all the content is retained, but cells with a specific data format, such as numbers, currency, or dates, are converted to text.

If a fill color is applied to the top-left cell, the merged cell takes on the fill color.

Unmerge cells Select the cell, then choose Format Table Unmerge Cells (from the Format menu at the top of your screen).

All of the content from the previously merged cell appears in the first unmerged cell.

You cant include only part of a merged cell in a cell range thats used in a formula.

If you refer to a cell in a formula, then merge the cell with cells that are outside the formulas intended range, the formula may result in an error.
