Hi,

Say column B in an Excel sheet contains ForeNames and column C contains
FamilyNames, how would I merge these two together in an inserted Column
D as <forename<space<familyname?

Also another column contains numeric values with 3 or 4 digits. I need
to pad these numbers with a leading zeros making 234 to 0234 and also
convert this field to a string field to make sure that excel doesn't
strip this zero off again. How would I do this..?

Thanks a lot if someone has a couple of code snippets which can give me
a point of departure with routines like this in the future

regards

tor
