You did say "move" the contents of column B so my bad.

Manually:

Select Column A
Insert Column
Select A1
Insert formula =B1&C1
Copy formula to last Row
Copy Column A
PasteSpecial Values
Select Column B & C
Delete

With VBA: (probably isn't the best way but works for me)

Sub CombineAandB()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Columns("A:A").Insert Shift:=xlToRight
Range("A1").FormulaR1C1 = "=B1&C1"
Range("A1:A" & Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row).FillDown
Columns("A:A").Select
Selection.Copy
Selection.PasteSpecial xlvalues
Columns("B:C").Select
Selection.Delete
Range("A1").Select
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Both do means do replace the contents in column A.

Hello,

Need help in moving column contents without overwriting existing
contents. Example - Cell A1 contents is "1234/", cell B2 is "55". Want
to move all of column B to column A without overwriting the cells in
column A. In example cell A1 would end up reading "1234/55".

Thanks,
Tom
