Default Shortcut Key for Merging Cells

Hi All -

In my everyday work life I often have to build plans in an excel sheet and I
need to merge or unmerge cells. Is there a shortcut key to merge and unmerge
cells without having to go to format cell and select the align tab, and then
click or unclick the merge option?

Thanks!

You could also just click the "Merge and Center" button on the Formatting toolbar.

Be careful of merging cells. It's not common to see this in practice. I
almost never do this. I'd certainly never do it for people who are not very
Excel savvy because it causes many more problems than it fixes.

Hi,

Instead of merging cells across columns, use Format cells Alignment
Horizontal Centre across selection
