Issue Copying Merged Cell Text

Does anyone know why copying text from a merged cell into another application (ie: the password field of a web site) copies additional blank characters. Is there a way to copy only the actual contents of the merged cell?
 
CinCode5,

You can save time when working with merged cells:

1. Get angry first.
2. Don't use them.

The second is the option that most folks have come to use. Merged cells
cause some problems, and often down the road when you don't suspect they're
the cause.
