A cell blocked from being merged

What would cause a cell to be blocked from being merged, such as cell # a26, with the cells immediately to the right?

Stephen,
You can hover over the Column A Label and click the disclosure triangle to get the column menu and select Delete column. That will eliminate the Header column. You can also delete it in the Table Inspector or the Table Menu.
As to why they put it there, well, that's the only place it can go and I guess they thought you would want a header column. It's a way of introducing the feature to new users. You can always make a User Template with a plain table for future use in new docs.
Thanks for the feedback on the solution.
Jerry
p.s. Numbers gives you plenty of options for avoiding having to merge cells and it's generally a good idea not to merge of split. The result of merging or splitting is often that you find that you are unable to sort, delete columns or rows, etc. later.

  • Trying to find answers for the question "Why is this file type blocked from being uploaded into SharePoint"

    At least once a month - sometimes much more frequently - I get calls from users asking why the file extension they "need" to upload to SharePoint is blocked.
    Most recently, it was a Microsoft Access database that the user was attempting to upload to a document library. Before that, it was a shortcut link (*.url). And so on.
    Is there a reference document which goes over the reasons why specific file types are blocked?
    Thanks!

    Each blocked file format has it's own reasons for not being allowed to be stored on a SharePoint library.
    Some of them are blocked because they would be processed by SharePoint Servers during the upload/download sequences, thus, possibly corrupting the system ( like dll files ). Others would cause Crawl to break ( url files ).
    The Access database files are blocked for two valid reasons. First, because saving "live" to those files using Windows explorer window ( WebDAV ) doesn't work. Second because SharePoint product managers want us to use SharePoint lists instead.
    And it does makes sense.
    If you're in the middle of a migration from file servers to a SharePoint solution, your people could use these situations to stop and think about it for a little:
    Really ? Now that we have SharePoint, couldn't we do things a little bit differently ?

  • HT4528 The new iOS6 allows you to send/receive messages from other phones linked to your iTunes account which is great for checking on my kids but I dont want them to be able to add my phone to their messages.  Is there a way to block from being added to

    I updated to the iOS6, and it allows you to view and send messages with any phone on iOS6 and linked to your iTunes account.  You can unselect phones so they dont go out through the phone, but is there a way to block other phones from adding yours?  Example, I don't ind being able to see what my son is sending/receiving on his phone but I don't really want him to be abe to add my phone and see all my messages...

    Simple process. If an iPhone go to the Apple Store and not Verizon
    the phone from Verizon will be a refurbished device and not new unless under the 14 day worry free guarantee
    good luck

  • Plugins are blocked from being activate - even though click_to_play is false

    Using Firefox 30.0 (Ubuntu 1.0) on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS AMD64, selected about:config, plugins.click_to_play;false
    Still have to select "Activate" every single time I go to a website and need to use Adobe Acrobat, or any other plugin. Extremely annoying.

    What is the default setting for the plugins on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Plugins" page?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

    I had a free trial of Lightroom 5 and tried to purchase it, but page errors blocked me from being able to do this. I then got a free trial of Adobe CC.  At first I saw my old photos, then the whole thing went down, and now I have a new Lightroom 5 trial, and none of my edited photos.  Can I retrieve all these photos from my first trial?

    Yes, you have to find the catalog file from the CC trial (use your operating system to search for it, the file name ends with .LRCAT), and then once you find it, open the LR5 trial and open the catalog you just found using File->Open Catalog

  • What is the best way to filter an IP from being blocked?

    What is the best way to filter an IP from being blocked by a false positive? Event Action Filter?

    I'll assume you really mean "blocked" as opposed to "denied". You can either create an event action filter and subtract the blocked action, or you can add the address to the "never block" addresses.

  • Prevent certain cells in TreeView from being selected!?

    Hi,
    is it possible to prevent certain cells in a TreeView from being selected?
    I have a TreeView and the TreeItem's on the first "depth" should not be selectable.
    I tried to add an EventHandler to the tree item and caught Event.ANY, but no event was dispatched, when a cell was selected.

    Research eventFilters in combination with event.consume():
    http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/api/javafx/scene/Node.html#addEventFilter%28javafx.event.EventType,%20javafx.event.EventHandler%29
    Other ways to accomplish this may be via a custom selectionModel:
    http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/api/javafx/scene/control/SelectionModel.html
    http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/api/javafx/scene/control/TreeView.html#setSelectionModel%28javafx.scene.control.MultipleSelectionModel%29
    Or by adding a ChangeListener to the selectedItems property of a the default TreeView selectionModel and setting the items to not be selected if it is the at the first "depth".

  • Locking a cell to prevent it from being overwritten

    I want to create a table that restricts data entry to specific cells within the table, keeping cells with formulas that calculate data from being overwritten but I am not seeing any way to "protect" cells from inadvertent data entry. Putting an object over the top of a cell or range of cells and setting its opacity to 0 and then locking it keeps you from selecting the underlying cell with the mouse but you can still tab over to the cell with the direction keys and enter data. Is there a way to lock/protect a cell to keep it from being overwritten?

    b,
    This is an area that Numbers can't really address effectively. The designers don't seem to have considered the possibility of having a document designed by one user and used by others less knowledgeable or trustworthy or careful. If you don't like the workarounds that you found in other discussions your best course is to use another program for now and submit Feedback to Apple if you want to influence future development.

  • When I merge one project with another, Aperture for some strange reason, randomly scrambles the photos from the project being merged, instead of keeping them in the order they were shot. What can I do to fix this?

    When I merge one project with another, Aperture 3 randomly scrambles the photos of the project being merged, instead of keeping them in the chronological order that I shot them in. What can I do to correct this?

    The photos have just been dumped into a new home and need to be told how to be arranged.  Go to the top left of the browser view for the merged project and select the desired sort order from the drop-down and they'll all sort according to that setting.

  • I am being blocked from my "favorites"on my iPad 2 with the following....... You are not authorized to open this file. What do I need to do

    I'm being blocked from my favorites on my iPad 2 with the following........... You are not authorized to open this file. What do I do?

    I'm not sure whether you have tried the "usual" things:
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    * Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * classic Tools menu > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Any difference?

  • HT1349 I have purchased a new PC and am being blocked from accessing my itunes account why ???

    I have purchased a new PC and am being blocked from accessing my itunes account why???

    You are being blocked how ?
    If you mean that your library isn't showing then it won't automatically appear on it. You can authorise your iTunes account on it via the Store > Authorise This Computer menu option (with iTunes 11 pressing Alt-S should get the Store menu to appear). You will then need to either download your content onto it (what you can re-download will show under Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage), or copy if from your old computer or your backup.
    If you are referring to something else ... ?
