How so unless your data is not as you originally described it?

A1 = first
B1 = last

A2 = next first
B2 = next last

In C1 using the formula given you will get "first last"

In C2 you will get "nextfirst next last"

This formula does work. However, it uses up two rows...

It merges 1/2 the data appropriately, but fails to merge every other line...

Copy down as far as required.
Copy column CPastes Special back over the formulae to "fix" the values.

I am trying to 'make one' a number of columns...
Essentially I have several thousand rows of data that I need to clean
up...
What I would like to accomplish is Column A + B = AB

Column A Data: I need this one first
Column B Data: and this one comes right behind with a space for proper
grammer
To equal one column: I need this one first and this one comes right behind
with a space for proper grammer.

Thanks in advance for any input!
