Is it possible to merge cells?

PJ · 07/01/15

I need to merge cells, some within the same row, some within the same column, etc. I do not see a "merge cells" button, nor can I find the term in the community here. This is a basic requirement of a sheet, just curious where that button is hidden, and/or if it exists at all? Thanks.

Hi PJ,

You cannot merge cells in Smartsheet, like you can in Excel.

You can create new using formulas.

Formula can use existing cells.

this is one of the few really frustrating things about Smartsheets - what are the chances of it being added in the future please?

Tom, we do not have any near term plans for this functionality but I will submit your vote for this request to our product team!

I would like this too. To create a "longer" text header on top of your sheet that would also be viewable in your reports

I vote for cell merge, I agree that this is a basic requirment when building a sheet.

As a new user, the inability to merge cells is a major issue.

Definitely adding my vote here, its kinda insane that Merge cells doesnt exist. This is also a super simple feature, with very powerful uses.

Please add!

Chris, Mike, and Adam - your votes have been recorded!
