Can I build a sentance from data tables in Excel?
I'd like to take data from different tables and create a sentance.
I've built a program to quote my companys products. Each quote is typed by a secretary. If I could program the variables to create the sentances, it woud streamline the process. |

Can I build a sentance from data tables in Excel?
Thanks, but I'm new to this and I don't understand all of it yet. I typed
that in but it didn't do anything. Is there someplace I can read up on the subject, possibly showing examples?
