combining text from 2 cells
hi just wondering if anyone can help- this is probably really simple, but anyway: ive got a list of postcodes, however, there in seperate cells, ie - EX5 3HU BD24 4HU PL87 6HY GU56 3RG What i need to do is combine them so they are in the same cell (with a 1 space in between them so it looks like below: EX5 3HU BD24 4HU PL87 6HY GU56 3RG Help would be very much appricated -- stapleton2308 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ stapleton2308's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30878 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=515350 |

One solution: in cell C1 enter the formula
=A1&" "&B1 where A1 holds EX5 and B1 holds 3HU, for instance. Another alternative in C1 is =CONCATENATE(A1," ",B1) |

Assuming EX5 and 3HU are in cells A1 and B1 respectively, type the
formula =A1&" "&B1 into C1, and copy it down the column. stapleton2308 wrote: hi just wondering if anyone can help- this is probably really simple, but anyway: ive got a list of postcodes, however, there in seperate cells, ie - EX5 3HU BD24 4HU PL87 6HY GU56 3RG What i need to do is combine them so they are in the same cell (with a 1 space in between them so it looks like below: EX5 3HU BD24 4HU PL87 6HY GU56 3RG Help would be very much appricated -- stapleton2308 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ stapleton2308's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=30878 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=515350 |

Assuming you are using columns A and B, use the following formula in cell C1
to "concatenate" the two cells: =A1&" "&B1 (a space between the quotation marks), then copy down as far as necessary. When done, Copy and Paste Special Value everything in column C over the data in column C to remove the formula. Then you can delete columns A and B.
