{{}} OK. Thanks. Below is my "original" chart. Then, below that, is my "revised" chart.

On the "original" chart, I want to add a "heading". The heading will state: Below is all of the updated information.. I want this heading (cell) to span several columns and several rows.

So, I created my "revised" chart.

Everything is what I want, except for one thing. In the "revised chart", I want that "heading" to have more height (i.e., I want that row to be taller). So, as you can see, I can get the "colspan" to work well (namely, to "spread out" across all 4 columns). But, whenever I add in a "rowspan" function / code, everything gets screwed up. I tried with several variations of "syntax", punctuation, etc. It always screws up the rest of the chart.

Also: As I stated above: I want to use the "rowspan" function, if possible; not the "row height" function.
