Combine Cells
I would like to combine 3 cells into 1, but I need to keep the formatting
intact. For example, A1 = Cat A2 = Dog A3 = Bird I need to display the information in a new cell in this way: Cat Dog Bird I can use the concatenate feature, but it runs it together. Do I need to add a "return" in the formula and, if so, how do I do that? Thanks for your assistance. |

Use:
=A1 & CHAR(10) & A2 & CHAR(10) & A3 and then format the cell as alignment wrap. -- Gary's Student "candy_k99" wrote: I would like to combine 3 cells into 1, but I need to keep the formatting intact.

if i understand rihgt you want the information from the three cells to one
but with space between. Try concatenate as you did but after the cell selection, add a space, a comma or whatever you need to have.

Thanks, "ice" for your assistance. I needed the info to "stack" in the cell
and needed to use the char(10) (return) to make it work. "ice" wrote: if i understand rihgt you want the information from the three cells to one but with space between.
