Hi Heiko. Just to be clear, in Writer the terminology is correct: "Split
Cells". This is correct because in Writer, if you add a table you can select
any cell and split it further. And the newly created cells can be split again,
and again...

In Calc it is not possible to Split a cell. If you select a single cell, it is
not possible to split it in two. The only thing that can be done is first to
merge cells and later "Unmerge" them restoring their original situation.
