Merging Cells

I have version 1.6 of FCKEditor - and for the most part I love it - I intend replacing my htmlarea editors with it - however I cannot seem to merge the cells of a column in a table. When I click and drag the text inside cells is selected not the actual cells themselves.
Is this a bug or am I missing something obvious?

RE: Merging Cells

I have the same problem. What I usually do is just delete the empty cell(s) next to the one I filled with text. Then edit the properties of the filled cell and set it's colspan to something larger than 1.

By the way, I just checked, When merging cells, it seems to be vital to have content in all cells before you're able to merge. Just select all content of the cells you want to merge and select "merge cells" from the context menu.
