Default SIMPLE CONCATENATE FUNCTION

Take a look at my thread "FYI: MSDG not displaying posts;...". Ignore
Peter's comments; he did not understand the problem. But some of my later
response refine the details of the problem.

I'm not sure which postings your are complaining about. But if you look at
the actual "source" of the posting, you might see that the From address is
" or that the Message-ID is ".
Either indicates that it was submitted using the MS Discussion Groups web
interface. Such is the case for some of the more recent postings that I
looked at in this thread.

FYI, the MSDG web interface is still broken as of the time of this response,
more than 48 hours later.

I apologize for asking such an incredibly newbie question, but I simply
can't
get this to work, despite reading the help files and searching this
forum. I
am using Windows 7 and newly purchased Excel 2007.

I have a column A with the following words (this is a simple, made-up
example): in

A1 The
A2 book
A3 is
A4 on
A5 the
A6 shelf.

I want to CONCATENATE them into one sentence in one cell. I can get
CONCATENATE to work in one row of cells in two or more columns, but I
can't
get it to work in several rows of cells in the same column. Could you
please
explain in detail how this can be done? Thanks.
