Google-docs – How to remove horizontal page-break line (dotted and bold) that appear on tables in Google Docs

Here's a way to merge that works pretty well for all but the most complex tables.

1. Start with your two tables.

2. Add a new blank row to the first table.

3. Select the entire second table and copy it (Ctrl+C).

4. Put your cursor back into the first cell of the blank row you created (do not select the entire row), then paste (Ctrl+V).

5. Then just delete the second table.

Splitting a table would be a similar process:

1. Create a new blank table
2. Copy the rows from the original table that you want in the new table
3. Paste them into the new table
4. Delete the rows from the original table

Not as clean as a simple split/merge command, but should suffice in most cases.

To split a table in Google Docs:

1. Select the bottom part of the table - everything below the point where you want the split.

2. Drag it below the table

3. Delete the empty rows that are left behind
