Hi,

Try this

Sub Merge()
Set sht = Sheets("Sheet1") ' Change to suit
lastrow = sht.Cells(Cells.Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
Set MyRange = sht.Range("B1:B" & lastrow)
For Each c In MyRange
If Not IsNumeric(c.Value) Then
c.Offset(, -1).Value = c.Value
c.ClearContents
End If
Next
End Sub

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.
