Determining Table Cell Merge/Straddle value

[POPEYE]

I am creating some VBA to process the contents of Word tables.
I need to capture certain properties for any given cell. One
of which is whether it has been merged. That is whether it straddles
columns and how many columns if it does. Horizontally and vertically.

Hi =?Utf-8?B?UE9QRVlF?=,

I am creating some VBA to process the contents of Word tables.
I need to capture certain properties for any given cell. One
of which is whether it has been merged. That is whether it straddles
columns and how many columns if it does. Horizontally and vertically.

Unfortunately, the Word object model provides no information about
this. There are some discussion threads in the word.vba.general
newsgroup about getting the information for merged table cells.
