Description
w:gridSpan specifies the number of table grid columns that a cell spans. It is defined in ECMA-376 Part 1 §17.4.17.
When a cell spans multiple columns, its w:tcW should be the sum of all grid column widths it covers. The corresponding grid positions in the same row do not contain a cell element.
