Default Concatenate anyone?

Bob,

Excellent, thank you very much for your help.

Dylan,

My error sorry, I forgot an important bit.

I have corrected that, and also added code to deal with empty cells, so you
don't get repeated commas

Sub ConcatAndMove()

Dim srcrng As Range
Dim tgtrng As Range
Dim cell As Range
Dim tmp As String

Set srcrng = Application.InputBox("Select input range with mouse",
Type:=8)
If Not srcrng Is Nothing Then
For Each cell In srcrng
If Not cell.Value = "" Then tmp = tmp & cell.Value & ","
Next cell
End If
Set tgtrng = Application.InputBox("Select TARGET range with mouse",
Type:=8)
If tmp < "" Then tgtrng.Value = Left(tmp, Len(tmp) - 1)

End Sub

Bob,

Thanks for your assistance. This seems to follow through with what I
wanted,
but the results are a bit weird. The target cell "A1" in this case
displays
a series of dots depending on how many source cells I select i.e. three
cells selected then "..." appears in Sheet2.A1

Regards

Does anyone know how to:
Select a group of cells, say in a table column,
concatenate the contents (perhaps separated by commas)
and copy over to a cell selected in Sheet2?

I tried to record a macro to do this then install a RefEdit into the
macro,
but I am a total bottom-eater at excel VBA.
