I would like columns C & D to concatenate with a space and a comma seperating
the two words in each of my many sheets. the columns remain the same all the
time.

How do i do this? i tried using the concatenate formula in my macro code but
it didnt work as i dont really know how to refer to all sheets. Ideally i
would like a click of a button to concatenate C & D (with comma and space) in
each of my sheets.

thanks.

Maybe this,

Alt + F11 to open vb editor. Double click 'This Workbook' and paste this in

Sub renameall()
'Scroll through worksheets
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
ws.Select
Lastrow = Range("C65536").End(xlUp).Row
Set myrange = Range("C1:C" & Lastrow)
For Each c In myrange
c.Offset(0, 2).Value = c.Value & "," & c.Offset(0, 1).Value
Next

Next ws
End Sub

Missed you wanted a space so substitute this line

c.Offset(0, 2).Value = c.Value & " , " & c.Offset(0, 1).Value

I tried that but get a big X and '400' error!

i selected 'this workbook' from the left hand side somwhere and pasted the
code there.

please advise..

Sorry that was my fault, I should have said
right click 'This workbook'
Insert module and paste the code into the new module.

I now get a run time error 1004 and it highlights "ws.Select".

i have the workbook open, is there something im doing wrong? does it matter
if each worksheet is named and not called sheet..?

sorry about this!

Gemz,

I can't replicate that error and no it doesn't matter what your sheets are
called. Looking at the code again it doesn't really matter if its in a
module or a worksheet it should still work. I am confused by your comment
that 'I have the workbook open'. You have pasted the code into the workbook
you want to concatenate haven't you

thanks it works now but it takes a while to run.. there are like 20 sheets
but isnt there a way to speed up?

Try

the code

Application.screenupdating=true

This is how my code looks like now, it still took 2-3mins to run and froze
all other excel applications..

Sub concatenate1()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
ws.Select
Lastrow = Range("C65536").End(xlUp).Row
Set myrange = Range("C1:C" & Lastrow)
For Each c In myrange
c.Offset(0, 2).Value = c.Value & " , " & c.Offset(0, 1).Value
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

Next

Next ws
End Sub

Gemz,

I have a run of the mill laptop and my machine concatenated 100k records
across 3 worksheets in 12 seconds so it's one of a few things:-

You have a very large amount of records
Your PC processor time is being divided between this and other tasks
Your PC is slow

I don't see how the code can be significantly improved.

Sorry to bother you again but i have a quick question about the below, would
the macro work fine if the workbook is emailed across to someone else for
them to use the macro? they would probably assign the macro to a toolbar
button.. obviously the workbook would need to be opened for the macro to work?

thanks.
