Concatenate by checking a condition
Hi,
I am trying to concatenate cells after checking the condition. For example A B 1 0 1 A 1 B 2 0 2 1 2 B I would like to check the value of A and concatenate B. For A = 1, I am looking for 0 A B. For A = 2, I am looking for 0 1 B. Is there a function to do it automatic? Thanks |

Concatenate by checking a condition
Nothing built in to do this. There is a free add-in that has a function that
will do this: http://www.download.com/Morefunc/300...-10423159.html Then you can use an array formula** like this: =TRIM(MCONCAT(IF(A1:A6=1,B1:B6&" ",""))) Note that the resulting string can't be longer than 255 characters. ** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Senthil" wrote in message ...

Concatenate by checking a condition
Valko, Thanks for your help. I installed the add-in function that you have
suggested, I am getting the error message "#NAME?". I couldn't quite understand what to do with array formula? Can you please help. Thanks. "T. Valko" wrote: Nothing built in to do this.

Valko, I had to restart my m/c after the download installation. It works
pretty good. Thank you. "T. Valko" wrote: Nothing built in to do this.
