I have a spreadsheet that was created by another person.
They have broken sentences into individual cells
Sort
of
like
this

this continues for several hundred lines and I have to maintain it!

I've played with =concatenate and a couple of other things but what I really
nees is to figure out a macro that takes the current selection (say b1:b6)
and concatenates it into b1 (ie: b1 = b1&b2&b3&b4&b5&b6) - I know how to add
spaces etc but thats is a secondary concern.

The number of cells to add together is always different but they are always
in columns.

I have played with snippets of code and such and could probably make this
work if I had a couple of weeks to understand the model (I'm new to this -
did you guess?) but this must be something someone has come across before?


Can anyone point me at some code or ideas that will give me a jump start?

TIA
