Default Merge Cells depending on another column

Try this against a copy of your worksheet--it destroys the original data when it
builds the output:

Option Explicit
Sub testme()
Dim iRow As Long
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim FirstRow As Long
Dim wks As Worksheet

Set wks = Worksheets("Sheet1")

With wks
FirstRow = 1
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row

For iRow = LastRow To FirstRow + 1 Step -1
If .Cells(iRow, "A").Value = .Cells(iRow - 1, "A").Value Then
.Cells(iRow - 1, "B").Value _
= .Cells(iRow - 1, "B").Value _
& "," & .Cells(iRow, "B").Value
.Rows(iRow).Delete
End If
Next iRow
End With
End Sub

And make sure your data is sorted by column A.
