Hi guys,

I have a big spreadsheet showing a list of orders that has been placed.

I'm wanting to add the proof of delivery details for each order and what I ideally want in ONE cell is to have the word POD at the top and then 2 columns. One saying "POD Date" and one saying "POD name". What I'd like is the word POD at the top to merge over the two cells.

I know the easiest way would be to have 2 rows. The top one with POD in and then merged over the required cells and then underneath the other text.

But this means having an additional row on an already long spreadsheet just so I can have the word POD over two cells.

Can this be done?

It wants to look a bit like this...but with all the text in ONE row - and the word POD at the top merged

POD
POD Date POD Name
