-<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label multirow</title>
-</head><body>
-<h3>Merging cells in a column of a table</h3>
-<p/>It&#8217;s easy to come up with a table design that requires a cell that
-spans several rows. An example is something where the left-most
-column labels the rest of the table; this can be done (in simple
-cases) by using
-<a href="FAQ-slashbox.html">diagonal separation in corner cells</a>, but that
-technique rather strictly limits what can be used as the content of
-the cell.
-<p/>The <i>multirow</i> package enables you to construct such multi-row
-cells, in a very simple manner. For the simplest possible use, one
-might write:
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\begin{tabular}{|c|c|}
-\hline
-\multirow{4}{*}{Common g text}
- & Column g2a\\
- & Column g2b \\
- & Column g2c \\
- & Column g2d \\
-\hline
-\end{tabular}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-and <i>multirow</i> will position &#8220;Common g text&#8221; at the vertical
-centre of the space defined by the other rows. Note that the rows
-that don&#8217;t contain the &#8220;multi-row&#8221; specification must have empty
-cells where the multi-row is going to appear.
-<p/>The &#8220;<code>*</code>&#8221; may be replaced by a column width specification. In this
-case, the argument may contain forced line-breaks:
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\begin{tabular}{|c|c|}
-\hline
-\multirow{4}{25mm}{Common\\g text}
- & Column g2a\\
- & Column g2b \\
- & Column g2c \\
- & Column g2d \\
-\hline
-\end{tabular}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-A similar effect (with the possibility of a little more
-sophistication) may be achieved by putting a smaller table that lines
-up the text into a <code>*</code>-declared <code>\</code><code>multirow</code>.
-<p/>The <code>\</code><code>multirow</code> command may also used to write labels vertically
-down one or other side of a table (with the help of the
-<i>graphics</i> or <i>graphicx</i> package, which provide the
-<code>\</code><code>rotatebox</code> command):
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\begin{tabular}{|l|l|}
-\hline
-\multirow{4}{*}{\rotatebox{90}{hi there}}
- & Column g2a\\
- & Column g2b \\
- & Column g2c \\
- & Column g2d \\
-\hline
-\end{tabular}
-</pre>
-</blockquote><p>
-(which gives text going upwards; use angle <code>-90</code> for text going
-downwards, of course).
-<p/>To make a <code>\</code><code>multicolumn</code> multi-row &#8220;cell&#8221; in a table, you have to
-enclose a <code>\</code><code>multirow</code> inside a <code>\</code><code>multicolumn</code> &#8212; the other way
-around does not work, so:
-<blockquote>
-<pre>
-\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|}\hline
-\multicolumn{2}{|c|}{\multirow{2}{*}{combined cells}}
- &top right\\ \cline{3-3}
-\multicolumn{2}{|c|}{}
- &middle right\\ \hline
-bottom left
- &bottom center
- &bottom right\\ \hline
-\end{tabular}
-</pre>
-
-</blockquote><p>
-<i>Multirow</i> is set up to interact with the <i>bigstrut</i>
-package (which is also discussed in the answer to
-<a href="FAQ-struttab.html">spacing lines in tables</a>). You use an
-optional argument to the <code>\</code><code>multirow</code> command to say how many of the
-rows in the multi-row have been opened up with <code>\</code><code>bigstrut</code>.
-<p/>The documentation of both <i>multirow</i> and <i>bigstrut</i> is
-to be found, as comments, in the package files themselves.
