Assuming your existing text is in column A, then put this formula in a
helper column: =A1 & "extra_text" and copy this down as far as you need it. If you want it back in the original column, then highlight the column with the formula in, click <copy, then Edit | Paste Special | Values (check) | OK then <Esc. Now you can copy the helper column to overwrite the data in column A, and then delete the helper column. Hope this helps.
