=E3 &"_" & TEXT(O3,"##0+#0.00")

Returns NPL_2+36.98 with 236.98 in O3

Not what your original post requested.

I want to come up with "NPL_48+29"

Thanks for your patience.
Your formula is correct. What I need for this station is NPL_0+48.29.
If the station was 236.98 then I need it to appear as NPL_2+36.98.
In these examples the "+" relates to 100 (1+00) as a "," relates to 1000
(1,000).
Thank you again.

Hi,

I could not understand that - could you kindly explain again with an
example. My formula should give you the answer as NPL_48+29

Thanks. This is so close but it places the + where the . usesd to be
instead
of two places in front of it. I am working on stationing where 100' would
be
1+00.00.
Is there a way to move the + over?

Hi,

Try this

=N3&"_"&INT(O3)&"+"&MID(O3,SEARCH(".",O3,1)+1,2)

I want to join the values of two cells with different formatting.
Example:
"E3" = NPL and "O3" is a number 48.29548562458 formatted to appear
48+29.
I want to come up with "NPL_48+29" but can't seem to concatenate the
cells
without losing the format. All I can get is:
"NPL_48.29548562458"
How do I get the format "##0+#0.00" to carry over?
Thanks.
