See the below code. What we want to do is instead of using VBA to use
formula (Join & Trim) if possible. Don't want to have an input box
just named ranges, loop through named range "A" for and cell
containing x and if x then place results from named range "B" into on
cell Concatenating and commas separating each result.

Anybody help? Thanks!

Sub JoinCells()
Dim rCells As Range
Dim rRange As Range
Dim rStart As Range
Dim strStart As String
Dim iReply As Integer
On Error Resume Next

'Change Below to a named range instead of an input box

Set rCells = Application.InputBox _
(Prompt:="Select the cells to join," _
& "use Ctrl for non-contiguous cells.", _
Title:="CONCATENATION OF CELLS", Type:=8)

If rCells Is Nothing Then 'Cancelled or mistake
iReply = MsgBox("Invalid selection!", _
vbQuestion + vbRetryCancel)
If iReply = vbCancel Then
On Error GoTo 0
Exit Sub
Else
Run "JoinCells" 'Try again
End If
End If

'Set range variable to first cell
Set rStart = rCells(1, 1)

'Loop through cells chosen
For Each rRange In rCells
strStart = rRange 'parse cell content to a String
rRange.Clear 'Clear contents of cell
'Replace the original contents of first cell with "", then _
join the text Need to put results in a specific cell address
rStart = Trim(Replace(rStart, rStart, "") & " " _
& rStart & " " & strStart)
Next rRange
On Error GoTo 0

End Sub
