Is there a way to add 'colspan' or 'rowspan' attributes to a cell in a table using the RoboHelp UI? Of course, it's very simple to just edit the HTML directly, but I'm preparing documents that will be used in the future by executives, and like most executives they are barely computer-literate.

In the UI, select the columns or rows to be combined (spanned), then select Table > Merge Cells from the toolbar.

Good luck,

Leon

Thanks, I'll try that (and document it for the execs).

Hi there

In the RoboHelp HTML UI, the author selects the affected cells and chooses to merge them by either clicking the Table menu and choosing Table > Merge Cells or by clicking the Merge Selected Table Cells icon in the Tables and Borders toolbar.
