Default How to concatenate in macro across sheets

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

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..?

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
