Hi. I'm looking to be able to concatenate four items but enable the
user to define the order in which the items are concatenated. The concatenation will be a 'title' in a log, and users have titled things manually and differently for a long time, so I would like to make the programming update I'm trying to make flexible enough to enable users to continue using their own personal logs. I currently have two columns, Category and Number. My thought is to insert an 'Order' column in column A to allow the user to define the order of concatenation. For example, user Bob has his four categories order defined as Catalog#-INV-CMPL-Notes, as shown below. Order Category Number 1 Catalog# 5100 2 INV 87500 3 CMPL 87000 4 Notes Red (bush) Title: 5100-87500-87000-Red (bush) But user Sue has her four catergores order defined as INV-CMPL-Catago#-Notes, as shown below. Order Category Number 3 Catalog# 5100 1 INV 87500 2 CMPL 87000 4 Notes Red (bush) Title: 87500-87000-5100-Red (bush) What might be the formula I could use in the cell next to Title:? I've thought I might need some sort of Indirect, but I haven't been able to think how to apply this. And I haven't been able to find anything in my search in this group or on the internet. I'd greatly appreciate any thoughts and assistance. Thanks! Frank |
