concatenation
 

hi,

i would like to have filtered output in concatenate, i don't know how i can
do this :(

col A has make of Car's and col B has Models and i would like to
concatenanate all the filtered models in one cell of col C.

i am stuck with this.

In what format do you want the output?
how many rows do you have?
if not many and
if all you want is a space between the models
=if(A1=Car,B1&" ","")&if(A2=Car,B2&" ",""& ...
or set up a helper column (C) with
=if(A1=car,B1&" ","")

copy down

then = concatinate(C:C)
the more complicated the format, the more complicated the formula.

I'm pretty sure = concatenate(C:C) won't concatenate everything in column C.
Each cell would have to be put into the formula (eg =Concatenate(C1,C2,C3,
etc)), which, of course, is not practical.

I played w/a UDF, which seems to work okay. To the OP, try pasting into a
standard module, then use =Concatvisible(C1:C20) or whatever your range is.
When the filter is not on, it returns blank. If you are new to VBA, David
McRitchie has some instructions on his site:

Function ConcatVisible(rngData As Range) As String
Dim rngCell As Range
Dim strConcat As String

On Error GoTo ExitSub
Application.Volatile True

If Application.Caller.Parent.FilterMode Then
For Each rngCell In rngData.Cells
If rngCell.EntireRow.Height 0 Then
strConcat = strConcat & rngCell.Value & " "
End If
Next rngCell
ConcatVisible = Trim$(strConcat)
Else: ConcatVisible = ""
End If

ExitSub:

End Function
