Text position in merged table cells

You will have to adjust the formatting post-merge. There is no switch/option to change the merge behaviour.

thanks.

I think I recall that earlier versions of Word put the text of merged cells on the same line but maybe not. In any case it should give users that option.

The behaviour hasn't changed. As for whether there should be an option, you could suggest that to Microsoft. Who knows, they might add it to a future version...
