How do I combine cells? ex. first name, last name columns
 
I have a spreadsheet with multiple columns for first name, last name, address
state and zip. I need to combine first and last name, and also address,
state and zip in order to create mailing labels. How do I go about doing
this?

Thanks,

Laura

word to print your labels

Have a look here for information on Word mail merge using Excel as the data

See if this will help. On the Tools menu, point to Letters and Mailings, and
then click Mail Merge Wizard.

Sounds like something in MS Word, not Excel. Are you suggesting using MS
Word to do this with Excel as the data source?
