how is it possible to merge all cells in a row? The cell has a Property to set the ColumnSpan.
First I created a table with 30 rows and 10 columns in each row and then I set 9 to the ColumnSpan Property of the first cell in a row. However, they don't look good at the attached image
Thanks,

Hi Chi Ming,
When setting a column span for a cell, you only need to call StartTableCell() once and the cell will take up the required space. So for your example, you only need to call StartTableCell() twice for your first row. The first StartTableCell() contains a ColumnSpan of 9. This will create a cell that spans 9 columns. The second StartTableCell() will be the for 10th column cell in that row.
I have attached an example that creates a word document where the first row has a column span of 9.
Do you have any further questions on this matter?
That could be a useful method to have. I recommend that you submit this as a new product idea at <http://ideas.infragistics.com>.

Add your product idea and be sure to be specific and provide as much detail as possible.• Explain the context in which a feature would be used, why it is needed, why it can’t be accomplished today, and who would benefit from it. You can even add screenshots to build a stronger case. Remember that for your suggestion to be successful, you need other members of the community to vote for it. Be convincing!• Include a link to this thread in your idea so product management will be able to look back at this case.
The Product Idea site puts you in the driver’s seat and allows you to track the progress of your ideas at any time, see how many votes it got, read comments from other developers in the community, and see if someone from the product team has additional questions for you.
No, but I suggest your team to add a new method called "MergeHorizontal" which merges cells in a row. They are as almost same as MergeVertical method of the TableCell Member Object that Infragistic Word Library have.
