Hi, I tried searching for an answer to this but couldnt find the one I needed.
Apologies if I missed it.

I have data in cells B2 thru E2 on sheet 2 of my book. (eg, truck, red,
100Ton, petrol) that is all selected from drop down lists.
I need sheet 4 of my book to see this data and collate it all into cell E2
there so it reads 'truck red 100ton petrol' all in the one cell and seperated
by spaces.
I have tried vlookup and this formula also in the cell E2 on sheet4 "=sheet2!
B2:E2."
When I try the latter it only shows the value of the E2 cell.

Im sure Im overlooking something simple, any help is much appreciated, even
if it means slapping some sense into me ;-)

Use
=concatenate(Sheet2!B2,Sheet2!C2,Sheet2!D2Sheet2!E 2)
Concatenate wants indivisual text (cells) between commas. I don't know why
you can't use a range...

Im sure I can add spaces from here on in.
Thankyou once again
