Default Mixing text and formulas in the same cell

I would like to mix a formula with text in the same cell, something like
Client Name & sum(A1:C2)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

John

Where is the cliend name stored. Assuming it is in A10 you could do soemthing
like this...

=A10 & " " & sum(A1:C3)
or
="John Smith " & Sum(A1:C3)

Note that when you add the text the cell is no longer numeric so you cna not
do any further calculations against it...

= "Client Name "&sum(A1:C2)

The quote marks are used to delimit a text string.
