Yes.

Select the cell with the formula in it and pull_down:
Format Cells... Number Custom
the Type-in field will say General
Your enter General" hello world"
and you will see the result. If you do it this way you can still use the
cell for math.

you might need to explain a little more what you're trying to acheive.

There are two ways, either:

=[formula]&"text"

or

=[formula]&D4 (where cell D4 contains the text you want adding to the
end)
