Default Macro/SUB to merge two columns of text

EXCEL 2003: How do I write a VBA subroutine to:
(1) Take each cell in the currently-SELECTED column
(2) Append to its (text) contents the text in the corresponding cell of
the NEXT column
(3) Replace the result in the original cell
(4) On completion, delete the whole of the NEXT column?
All text values need to have leading and trailing blanks TRIMMED before
being concatenated.

This is to cope with the situation where downloaded data contains
information split over two columns that the worksheet needs to have in one,
e.g. company name and branch location.
