Default Help with Concatenation

Hi Rick,
Is there a way to concatenate a cell range of 500 cells into 1 cell without
macros? I thought I heard there was also a limit to how many cells could be
included in the formula so assume there is a work around for that?

ideas?

thanks in advance, jane

Help needed to concatenate 11 cells on same sheet, all of them in
the same row into two. Of the 11 cells, only max of 2 in each row
are filled out, others are left blank. How can I concatenate these
11 cells into 2 for each row?


If I understand your question correctly, just link the with ampersands.
Assuming we are talking about the first 11 columns...

=A1&A2&A3&A4&A5&A6&A7&A8&A9&A10&A11


Well, the above formula is for concatenating the first 11 rows of a column,
which is not what you asked, was it? Try this formula assuming we are
talking about the first 11 columns (note, the technique is the same)...

=A1&B1&C1&D1&E1&F1&G1&H1&I1&J1&K1
