Merge Cells
I know how to combine the contents of 2 cells (example: cell A1 "1234" and
cell B1 "567") by using =(A1&""&B1) resulting in "1234567". How can I combine the cells but dropping the last digit in A1 to have a result as "123567"? I found help in doing this before but can not locate it. I remember using the above function but with a slight adjustment. Thank you! |

Merge Cells
Is the number in A1 always 4 digits long? If so you could use this formula.
