You can split a table cell at any time, thus dividing it into several cells.
To do so, proceed as follows:
| 1. | Position the text cursor in the cell that you want to split. |
| 2. | Choose the ribbon command Table | group Merge and split | Split cells  . |
| 3. | A dialog box appears. In this dialog box, enter the number of rows and columns into which the cell should be split. |
| 4. | Confirm with OK. |
The cell is now split accordingly.
Splitting several cells at once
You can also select several adjacent cells before choosing the command Split cells. In this case, these cells are all split.
Note the option Join selected cells before splitting? in the dialog box of this command:
▪If you select the option Treat the selection as one cell and split it, the selected cells will be merged into a single cell before splitting.
▪If you select the option Each selected cell will be split individually, however, each of the selected cells will be split into the specified number of rows and columns.
