Merge and unmerge cells using a macro in an excel report

When I copy a range of cells, some are merged and some not, and it happens that for my report, I need to unmerge them but in some occasions, I need to merge some cells too.

How is the macro ?

Copy the code below and paste it into your macro. You will see my comments in green if exist so follow the help to adapt to your need.

To unmerge:

Sub test()
' put only the cells you want to unmerge
Range("B2:B10").UnMerge
End Sub

To merge:

Sub test()
' put only the cells you want to merge
Range("B2:B10").Merge
End Sub

If I want to center the comment in the middle, this is the code:

Sub test()
' change B2:B10 by your cell reference
With ActiveSheet.Range("B2:B10")
.HorizontalAlignment = xlCenter
.VerticalAlignment = xlCenter
.Merge
End With
End Sub
