Can be used for many operations but generally used to combine two cells like
=A1&B1 or =A1&" "&B1 Or any text operation like ="This is your salary. " & Text(B1,"$#,##0") & " For the month of February" Where B1 conatins a number like 123,456 Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Thu, 18 Feb 2010 11:53:01 -0800, Graham wrote: |
