Fixed length string of text
Small modification:
=REPLACE(A1&B1&C1&D1,LEN(A1&B1&C1)+1,0,REPT(" ",59-LEN(A1&B1&C1&C1)))
Might give a slightly better look

You have a considerable problem here to give a visual look to the line as
you show it. Consider the width of the letters 'm' & 'i' so a name with a
double 'm' will visually appear wider than a name with 'i's in it.
Anyhow try this as being the best I think you may get for variable lengths
of names and widths of letters:
=REPLACE(A1&B1&C1&D1,LEN(A1&B1&C1)+1,0,REPT(" ",30-LEN(A1&B1&C1)))

Hello,
I am trying to create strings of text by combining cells using CONCATENATE.
I need to have each string of text to be the same length. Below are some
examples of the text strings:
A1= 0000001
B1=123456789
C1= Doe
D1= John
A2=0000002
B2=987654321
C2=Smith
D2=John
In need the lines to look like this:
0000001123456789Doe John
0000002987654321Smith John
This is what they look like when I use CONCATENATE:
0000001123456789DoeJohn
0000002987654321SmithJohn
Is there anyway to get these strings of text to look like this without
manually adding the spaces for each line?
Thanks,
Megan
