How do I put cell data in between another cells data
My question deals with editing a description of a good.
What I would like to do is in cell A1 keep the data up to the first space in that cell. At that point of the space I would like to enter in the data from cell B1. After the insert of cell B1 I want it to continue on with the description from cell A1 afer the space and added data. All this data needs to be returned in cell C1. With a final outcome of; A1= Widget A 1/2 widget B1= (12345) C1= Widget (12345) A 1/2 widget |

Hi,
How about one of these shorter formulas: =SUBSTITUTE(A1," "," "&B1&" ",1) This formula assumes that the contents of B1 are text, if it is a number formatted to show negative with parenthesis then use this variation: =SUBSTITUTE(A1," "," ("&-B1&") ",1) If this helps, please click the Yes button. -- Thanks, Shane Devenshire "VictorKulikowski" wrote: My question deals with editing a description of a good.
