Default Merging Cells

Me thinks there must be a better way of importing the data :)

That means you would want to combine about 323 cells into each
composite cell, and with a comma between each postcode (with an average
length of 7 characters, say) this means you will have 2584 characters
in each combined cell.

cells.

Hi David,

I'm not sure I understand your problem.
Why do you want to merge the cells before you copy them?

Surely you can just highlight the entire column right click on it
and select copy, then open your new sheet right click in A1
and select paste.

Or am I missing something here?
