Inserting an Item into cells with text
 
How can I insert an asterix * into every cell in a column that already has
text in it without losing the text. For example I have a data base file
with about 2000 menu Items in it but I want all the Menu Items to have an (*)
in front of it.

Go to a blank cell to the right of the first entry. Use the concatenate
feature. Then copy, paste special, values to the original field.
