As explained no, but if you expand what you are trying to do, someone may
have a solution

You could do it to two adjacent cells (narrow column) to achieve the
effect, but not to a single cell.

Hope this helps.

Like the Greek atom, cells are indivisible

Hi

You can't split a cell.
You could give the appearance of a split cell by using the drawing Toolbar,
selecting the rectangle and creating two identically sized rectangles which
just covered one cell.
Right click on each rectangle and use Format Autoshape to the colour you
wanted for each one.
