Try this solution with Free Spire.Doc. using Spire.Doc; using Spire.Doc.Documents; using Spire.Doc.Interface; namespace test { class Program { static void Main( string [] args) { //load the Word file containing a table Document doc = new Document(); doc.LoadFromFile(@ "C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop	able.docx" ); //get the table ITable table = doc.Sections[0].Tables[0]; //copy content to the first cell for ( int i = 1; i { table.Rows[0].Cells[0].Paragraphs.Add(table.Rows[i].Cells[0].Paragraphs[0]); } //vertially merge the cells within the first column table.ApplyVerticalMerge(0, 0, table.Rows.Count - 1); //save to file doc.SaveToFile( "MergeCells.docx" , FileFormat.Docx2013); } } }

Thanks, but: 1- I need the content of the merged cell to appear on every page. 2- Can I merge few groups of cells, like column 0 from row 5 to 20, and column 0 from row 30 to 70? 3- Is there a solution without Spire? I prefer only Interop
