Consolidate multiple cells into one
 
How would I consolidate multiple cells(more than two) into one cell. I used
concatenate but would like to be able to select all applicable cells at once
instead of keying in each cell number.

Sub ConCat_Cells()
Dim x As Range
Dim y As Range
Dim z As Range
Dim w As String
Dim sbuf As String
On Error GoTo endit
w = InputBox("Enter the Type of De-limiter Desired")
Set z = Application.InputBox("Select Destination Cell", _
"Destination Cell", , , , , , 8)
Application.SendKeys "+{F8}"
Set x = Application.InputBox("Select Cells...Contiguous or Non-Contiguous", _
"Cells Selection", , , , , , 8)
For Each y In x
If Len(y.text) 0 Then sbuf = sbuf & y.text & w
Next
z = Left(sbuf, Len(sbuf) - 1)
Exit Sub
endit:
MsgBox "Nothing Selected. Please try again."
End Sub

If not familiar with VBA and macros, see David McRitchie's site for more on

In the meantime..........

First...create a backup copy of your original workbook.

To create a General Module, hit ALT + F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor.

Hit CRTL + r to open Project Explorer.

Find your workbook/project and select it.

Right-click and InsertModule. Paste the code in there. Save the
workbook and hit ALT + Q to return to your workbook.

Run or edit the macro by going to ToolMacroMacros.

You can also assign this macro to a button or a shortcut key combo.
