how to mix text and cell in one cell
 
Can I input in a cell:
Create tablespace $A1 datafile '$B1' size $C1 REUSE.
and expect the result to be ==
Create tablespace TS_TEMP datafile '/opt/oradata_sid/temp.bdf' size 799M
REUSE.

In other word, can I mix text and referencing-cells in one cell instead of
concatenating individual cells?

hi
use the ampersand symble
="create tablespace " & $A1 & " datafile " & $B1 & " Size " & $C1 & " Resue"

Be sure to include spaces inside the quotes so that it will read like a
sentence ie not run words togeather.
