Default Concatenating non adjacent cells

Hello, I am trying to create a result field, concatenating populated cells
from the previous 12 columns on that line, but excluding blank cells and
putting a * delimiting character between each instance - please find below a
4 column example.
ID 1 2 3 4 Result
Z A C D A*C*D
Y B C B*C
X A B D A*B*D
Each of the 10,000 lines of the spreadsheet is different - there are at
least 5 blank cells on each line. Any help gratefully received. Many thanks.
Bob
