I am having trouble merging a particular group of cells in a table. Not sure why. Can someone please take a look at the image below and tell me how to accomplish this? When I try to highlight just the cells containing a,b,c,d,e, and f the entire rows get highlighted. I want to place a memo box there that covers the entire space. THANKS! If it matters, I use PHP 4.
Well, I thought if I clicked the image button above, it would let me browse for an image on my hard drive. Sorry, I don't know how to get the image to you. Hopefully, you can understand my objective from the info above.

Assuming you are talking HTML tables.
In CCS, for your page switch to HTML editor.
Locate your table row construct which should look something like
<tr>
<td>a</td>
<td>b</td>
<td>c</td>
<td>d</td>
<td>e</td>
</tr>
You probably want to change it to
<tr>
<td>your memofield</td>
</tr>
Assuming there is no more code before and after.
The easiest way to accomplish this if you are not into HTML constructs much, is to:
First: in the original page in Design mode, (still containing a to e cells), add the memo field. See the 'add column' button.
Second, switch to HTML mode, locate the <tr> that contains your new memo field.
Then either delete the <td>a</td> rows for a to e.
Leaving only the <td>Memofield </td>.
Things should be ok now in design mode.

If I understand your post right without the image.

Thanks for the reply, Walter! I was hoping for a quick fix in design mode but can also work in html mode. I'll play around with it and see what I come up with.
Thanks again!

It can be done in Design mode as well.
Just that.........
It would have taken me two pages to describe.
My Golden Rule:
if it takes more than 5 minutes to achieve in CCS, you are going about it
wrong!
Good charging to you.

Rowspan did the trick in a few seconds.
I changed <td>a</td> to <td rowspan="6">a</td> and deleted b-f cells.
Thanks for the push in the right direction Walter!

rowspan or colspan?
Anyway, you're happy!
But then I have never seen your image/picture.
