When merging header cells, the indices of this proeprty property refer to the cell that is to become a Master Cell of a merged set. The value indicates the size of the merged header cell in cell units. For example, to merge a header cell with the header cell next to it, you want to set the header cell's HeaderMerge property to 2:@FM:1. This is the same as saying that the header cell is now 2 cells wide and 1 cell tall.

* Merge header cell (1, 1) with the header cell next to it
Set_Property(@Window:".OLE_EDITTABLE", "OLE.HeaderMerge[1; 1]", 2:@FM:1) |
When reading the HeaderMerge property, you get different results from Slave Cells than from other cells. Non-Merged header cells always return 1:@FM:1. Master Cells always return the full dimensions of the merged set in cell units. Slave Cells always return negative values indicating the distance from itself to the master cell. For instance, in a 2x2 merged header cell, the bottom-right most header cell, which is a Slave Cell, will return -1:@FM:-1, because the Master Cell is one cell to the left and one cell above the Slave Cell.
