Concatenate Macro
 

Hi All

On a worksheet
Cell A2 = 4100,
Cell B2 = WM0001
CellD2 when using Text to Columns = 4100, WM0001
how do I get rid of the space so that Cell D2 = 4100,WM0001
I Email over 400 rows of similar information and Cell D2 must not have any
spaces.
I can do it manually but with over 400 rows its a pain - could a macro or
perhaps a VBA function do it automatically.

Any help appreciated

Cheers

=TRIM(A2)&","&TRIM(B2)

In cell D2, enter "=TRIM(A2) & TRIM(B2)"

Then copy & paste down as far as you need.

Hi Mully,

How are you building D2? If you do D2 = TRIM(A2&B2) you should not get
any spaces. You may not need a macro at all!!!

That will only trim the resultant value, not each individual value.

Hi All

About 3/4 Hr ago I sent an Email using your solution a shortened example below

4100,WM10677
Below is what I received back
4100,WM10677 ,262,1398

Is it possible that on cut and paste in to Excel Column E that the two
WM10677 Code Numbers would automatically match on the same row.in Columns B &
E.

I know what I want to happen but on reading the above appears crazy!!!

Cheers

Mully

Hi Bob

Another clanger dropped should have told you I receive back an attachment in
Notebook. I send in an Email 4100,WM10677 -- I then receive back
4100,WM10677 ,262,1398 --- the last two sets of figures are Miles and
Yards. What I've been doing is cutting 4100,WM10677 ,262,1398 out of the
attachment and pasting in Column E that is then converted Text To Columns no
problem with that. The problem is that when I send the list and its long --
sometimes when they return it some are missing so it doesn't cut and paste
exactly where it should. I was wondering if the 4100,WM10677 that I send and
is always in the same Column D - Cell and Row that on pasting
4100,WM10677,262,1398 into Column E that it would search and end up on the
same row.

Does that make sense???

4100,WM10677 4100,WM10677 ,262,1398 4100 WM10677 262 1398
Col D Col E Col G
Col H Col I Col J

Hi Bob,

Maybe it is getting late in the day in my corner of the woods but I
fail to see how trim(A&B) and trim(A)&trim(B) would not always return
the same result, afterall all we are doing is getting rid of the
spaces... If we were talking about LTRIM, then I would understand...

Ric,

Read the Help on TRIM, it says ... Removes all spaces from text except for
single spaces between words ... Thus, if either A1 or B1 has a trailing or
leading space, it creates a single space in the A1&B1, which doesn't get
trimmed. Or

A1: Bobspace
B1:space Ric

=TRIM(A1&B1) = BobspaceRic
=TRIM(A1)&TRIM(B1) = BobRic
