How do I use variables in Excel?
How Can I accomplish this, say this is field A1: The %product% only costs %price%. Order today, we only have %qty% left! -------------- Obvoiusly the words enclosed in % % are the variables that I want replaced. Is there way that I can make fields B, C, and D equal the corresponding variables? For example, B1= Dog collar C1= $9.99 D1= 20 So then A1 becomes: The dog collar only costs $9.99. Order today, we only have 20 left! I'm open to trying ANY method that can allow me to use variables in Excel. Thanks. -- XUT67 |

Hi XUT67, One answer I believe your looking for is: =CONCATENATE("The ",B1," only costs ",C1,". Order today, we only have ",D1," left!.") Hope that helps. -- Marcster |

To get the dollars to show up with the $ use this: ="The " & B1 &" cost only " & DOLLAR(C1,2) & ". Order today, we have only " & D1 & " left!." Grammatically correct also. I minored in English!
