I can merge multiple cells int o one cell using the & " "& formula in Excel.
It works great. The problem arises when I need to use it again. There must be
away to merge contents without having to type that formula over and over. I
try to make a template but it does not work, so I have to type the formula &"
" for approximately 40 to 50 cells.
Does anyone know how I can have one formula to wear I can copy my
information and paste it into the merge cells formula and have it work
correctly? I am trying to make a template that can bve used repeatedly with
out having to type that long formula for each cell.
Thankyou, Pierre Abadie

Pier You should have the ability to copy that formula in the same way you
do any other formula. Can you give a more specific example of the problem
that's occurring?

You could use a userdefined function that does the concatenation for you. Take
a look at J.E. McGimpsey's site:

If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at:
