We need to briefly cover what happens when you merge several cells in Excel or Google Sheets. Or, more specifically, what does not.

You can combine two columns in Excel using several formulas and tools available in the software. If the columns that you want to combine are empty, you can use Excel's merge function.

Unfortunately, you won’t find the “edit this cell” command listed in Excel’s keyboard customization section, so there’s no apparent way to change the shortcut.
