Merging Cells in an Array
I know it gives an error message when looking up merged cells in an
array, but I want to merge the result of an array. For example I'm looking up comments for certain positions based on the position and level, then I want to merge the comments over about four cells, but I get an error if I change anything about the formula. Suggestions? |

Merging Cells in an Array
You can only concatenate text data in a cell. if you have a number you first
have to convert it to text with the test() function. if A1 = 123 B1 = "Hello " C1 =concatenate(text(A1,"general"),B1) " wrote: I know it gives an error message when looking up merged cells in an array, but I want to merge the result of an array.
