Default Large Concatenate

Hi all. I have a database style worksheet that has in column A a persons
name. In columns B through AZ are items that person is authorized to work
on (pulldown list). This data will be uploaded to an ERP sytem, and need to
be in the format:
Joe|Item1|Item2|Item3|Item9|...
I can use a simple concatenate, but it will be huge. Is there a way to
programatically do this without actually using concatenate? It is also very
possible that columns could be blank. As above, Joe has data in the 1st 3
columns, then skips a few, then again in 9. Ideally, before Upload I'd like
to look at each row, and move all data to the left to eliminate blanks
columns. Thanks.
