![]() I have a column of data (col1) with text entries like " California Metal Works, Inc." I have another (col2) with entries like "Metal extrusions." What I want is a single cell with "California Metal Works, Inc. - Metal extrusions." in col1 I've tried to cut/paste but I can not paste without overwriting the data in original cell. I've tried edit mode but I can not paste there I tried concatenate but get a data error I tried merging cells but I get message that only leftmost cell will be kept So far I'm stuck manually typing the contents of col2 into col1 in edit mode. There must be a better way. Each entry in col1 is unique as is col2 so search/replace is the same as manually typing the data. Any help appreciated.
