Hi!

I have first name in A1 and last name in A2

When I use the syntax
Sheets("Extract").Range("A" & ERow).Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0,
-2).Value & ActiveCell.Offset(0, -3).Value

Value of ERow is 1
Offset -2 is the first name
Offset -3 is the last name

VBA does not support "&" to get both the names in one cell of a
different sheet?

Please help

I bet that the activecell isn't what you think it should be.

Maybe adding:
msgbox activecell.address(external:=true)
to your code will help you debug the problem.

maybe not the ideal way, but

Declare 2 variables

Set Var1 = ActiveCell.Offset(0,-2)
Set VAr2 = ActiveCell.Offset(0,-3)

Sheets("Exrtract").Range("A" & ERow) = Var1 & Var2

Thanx Steve, it worked

One more question. How do I remove the last character of var2
variable?

For instance:
var1 has Justin
var2 has Kemp,

I need only Justin Kemp after concatenation.

Thanx

Yes, it does. However, your code will fail if ActiveCell is in columns
A-C, because it can't go 3 columns left.

Are you getting an error message? If so, what kind?

Hth,

I was able to remove the last character... Thanx for your help
