Thanks. Is there a way to copy the formula (=a2&" ") into all the cells or
range of cells in a row instead of copying the formula into one cell at a

try going to an empty part of the sheet (say row a4) & type =a2&" " or "[any
character]" then copy that across the row for your range. after calc you can
copy the range & paste special (values) back into range a2 ...X2 & your
titles will have a trailing space [any character].

I want to add a space (or any character(s)) after each text value in all the
cells in a row or in a column

For example, cell A2 contains "ABC", cell B2 contains "DEF", and so on. I
want to make all the cells in row 2 to have a space so cell A2 contains "ABC
", cell B2 contains "DEF ",...
