If you push the Alt key once, you'll see tool-tip pop-ups on the ribbons letting you know what the sequence is to go to the ribbon and then the button you want. For merge and center, you can press the character sequence: Alt,H,M,C and it is as if you had clicked on the Merge and Center button. For merge across, it's: Alt,H,M,A @Sudhir, in Office 2007, almost every button on the ribbons has a keyboard shortcut sequence that you can memorize for the commands you frequently use.

Is there a shortcut key to merge and unmerge cells without having to go to format cell and select the align tab, and then click or unclick the merge option? Sudhir upadhyay, Jharkhand Thanks! Hi All –

In my everyday work life I often have to build plans in an excel sheet and I
need to merge or unmerge cells. Is there a shortcut key to merge and unmerge
cells without having to go to format cell and select the align tab, and then
click or unclick the merge option?

Unfortunately, by the time we got the beta, it was too late to put Center Across Selection into the ribbon, so you have to open up the format cells dialog.
