I have an area where I need to merge all cells in every row but not across rows. The area is very tall (around 250 rows), so doing it manually for every row is not viable. If I select the whole area and merge the cells, they all merge into one tall cell.
What is a good way to merge every row in the area? The starting point is shown by the first image, and the goal is shown in the second image. The area where rows should be merged is designated by the border and continues downward.
