Remarks

Creating a span of cells creates one large cell where there had previously been several. For example, if you create a span of cells from cell A1 to cell C2, cell A1 then appears to occupy the space from cell A1 through cell C2.

When you create a span of cells, the data in the first cell in the span (designated by the row and column parameters) occupies all the space in the span. When you create a span, the data that was in each of the cells in the span is still in each cell, but not displayed. The data is simply hidden by the span range. Also, the cell types of the cells combined in the span are not changed.

You can return whether a specified cell is in a span of cells by calling the GetSpanCell method. You can remove a span from a range of cells by calling the RemoveSpanCell method.

Note: You cannot sort a sheet that has spanned cells.

Example

This example creates a SheetView object, assigns it to the active sheet and sets up a spanned cell.
