View 7 RepliesI have a list of P/N's that are used in more then one location. and it's sorted by P/N's.
ColA__ColB__ColC
______Loc___PN
______1_____A
______2_____A
______3_____B
______4_____C
______5_____C
I Want to be able to put in Col A the concatenate results of all equal P/N's from any given list. Or at least select the few cells that i know are duplicates and from that copy the Location to a single Column.

Sampling table :
one

four
one

Desired results obtained via IF =IF(B2>0,A2&" , ",A2)&IF(C2>0,B2&" , ",B2)&IF(D2>0,C2&" , ",C2)&IF(D2>0,D2,"")
one , two , three , four
one , two , three
one , two
one
Is there any smarter, shorter formula via Concatenate and Substitute or other formulas ?
My closest match, but not good enaugh is =SUBSTITUTE(CONCATENATE(A2&", "&B2&", "&C2&", "&D2), ", , ", " ")
[ returna 2 commad ]
one, two, three, four
one, two, three,
one, two
one ,
I am trying to pull data from more than one drop down but don't the same data to show if already use, example as follow:
First drop down Contains:- Pants
Shirts
Hats
Shoes
Dresses
if I chose Hats it should not show up in the second drop down
second drop down Contains:- Pants
Shirts
Shoes
Dresses
Is this done in data validation or combo Box? if so how?
I have 2,000+ cells containing text that I need to break out into multiple cells. They are names (ex. John M Smith MD) and I need each part of the name in it's own column. I need the opposite of concatenate.

I am concatenating (is that a verb?) a bunch of cells to create an item code.
The combination of two different cells need to be able to give different values so I can dump the appropriate value into the CONCATENATE formula.
A picture is worth a thousand..
I want to write formula in cells(many cells!) using concatenate. The desired output:
In Sheet2!D1 - i will write concatenate of Sheet1!C6 and Sheet1F6
in Sheet2!E1 - i will write concatenate of Sheet1!C7 and Sheet1F7
in Sheet2!F1 - i will write concatenate of Sheet1!C8 and Sheet1F
Copy and paste formula would not do so i created a macro stated below. The problem is a can not change the ActiveCell.Formula correction.
I have a simple task and I use the concatenate formula to resolve alot of keystrokes. I now have an issue where I have to edit that formula because of a additional character for the string won't upload into a database. Here's my example:
1. Cell A1= 12345xxxx Cell B1= 67 Cell C1= 8
I use =CONCATENATE(A1,"-000"&B1,"-000"&C1) and my result is displayed in D1= 12345xxxx-00067-0008
Easy enough! Now adding the following is the problem:
1. Cell A2= 12345 Cell B2= 67 Cell C2= 89
I use =CONCATENATE(A2,"-000"&B2,"-000"&C2) and my result is displayed in D2= 12345xxxx-00067-00089
Now D2 has one too many characters from C2
I modify the formula by reducing to "-000"&C2 to be "-00"&C2 manually but now the line items have quadrupled and manually isn't going to work for this being so time consuming.
Is there a way to use a variable with the concatenate or am I using the wrong formula period ??
A1 contains "=2+3+4" which shows 8 as a result. I would like to add a word "Lbs" with it so it would display "8 Lbs" on the same cell. If I entered =1+2+3 on cell A6000, it should give me "6 Lbs".

Here's the
i trying to merge column A1 (ABC) with column B1(XYZ), B2(LOL), B3(ROF) ..etc
with a simple =CONCATENATE(A1,"-",B1) , i can get "ABC-XYZ" , but when come to column B2 , i only can get "-LOL" , any solution ?
Create a column of concatenated values to serve as a "primary key" for a compare and merge tool (Synkronizer). For some reason, the CONCATENATE function isn't being recognized.
If I enter
=CONCATENATE(A2,B2)
instead of showing the strings located in A2 and B2 it displays
=CONCATENATE(A2,B2)
in the cell.
I tried creating a new spreadsheet and it works just fine. Does anyone have an idea of what might be happening? I have compared all of the options between the two spreadsheets and don't see any difference in them.
I have 6 columns:
A1 = LastName
B1 = FirstName
C1 = LastName2
D1 = FirstName2
I need to concatenate into 1 cell so it looks like this: FirstName LastName;FirstName2 Last Name2. Now the challenge is that there are many instances where C1 and D1 are blank (don't have values).
So here was my attempt at a formula:
=IF(A1>""&B1>"",CONCATENATE(B1," ",A1))& IF(C1>""&D1>"",CONCATENATE(";"&D1,"",C1),"")
Now this works, but it ALWAYS leaves a semi colon at the end (even when there is no C1 and D1 to concatentate. Thus I put in my IF statement the "".
What function can get me the first letter from the first name and the whole last name together and then add @email.com. Example: Hanry Jones = HJones@email.com
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have this code
Code:
Selection.FormulaR1C1Local = "=INDIRECT(CONCATENATE(""["",R4C26,""]Sheet1!"",RC))"
Which creates this in the excel cell:
=INDIRECT(CONCATENATE("[",$Z$4,"]Sheet1!",D4))
But for some reason, it returns a 0. However, when I change the code in the excel cell to this
=INDIRECT(CONCATENATE("[",$Z$4,"]Sheet1!D4"))
It works. But I need to be able to change D4 in the macro, so doing it that way won't work for me.
I have the below set of data for example,
aaabbbcccdddeeeaaabbbaaabbbcccaaa
I need the output as,
aaabbbcccdddeeeaaabbbaaabbbcccaaa
As we know, a simple concatenate will work. But my columns are not limited and not easily countable. In my real scenario for some of the rows, data exist from column "A" till column "IB". So, I need to first identify the column data exist in each row and then to implement the concatenate function.
Currently I am trying to concatenate two arrays stockotherarray and stockfittingsarray to create stockarraynew

I'm trying to take the contents of 3 columns- A, B & C and have them form what I can use for a search string in column
D that I can use in a database I have.
Column A is first name
Column B is last name
Column C is Company Name
This is what i'm trying to get it to look like in column d:
("First Name Last Name" OR "FirstName.LastName") AND @companyname.com
On tab 2 of a spreadsheet, I am trying to concatenate several cells on tab one! Everything comes together in the cell on tab 2, however it does not hold the date format. It turns it into general text so just random numbers that do not even tie to the date. Any way to lock the date format for this idea?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a list containing 3 the abbreviations of states in A1:A3 (one in each cell), and I would like to concatenate the list in cell B1 to display the list like this: "CA, TX, FL". At times, the list will only have one state (always in A1), but at other times it may have 2 or 3.
I tried: =IF(ISTEXT(A),A1&", "&A2&", "&A3,A1)
But, if A2 does not list a state then it returns "#value!"; and if A2 lists a state but A3 does not then it returns only the value in A1.
What can I do to get it to list all states listed in column A whether there are 1, 2, or 3 states listed?
I have 7 consecutive cells which contain a %
e.g. A1 120%, B1 35% etc
I am trying to put them into one cell using concatenate
but am getting 1.20.3529411764705880.705882352941177
I would also like to separate them by comma,
I am using the concatenate function, however my date field, instead of maintaining its 08/07/07 state, changes to the annoying 5 digit 33935 number.
Even if I cut and paste it as special / values, it stays as the 5 digit number. Can this be avoided somehow?
Can I put the file name into a concatenate formula?
What I've got is seats for lots of different settees that I want to show up on a cutting sheet as ie:
10 Chatsworth Seats
15 Abbey Seats
At current its is reading 'Seats' from the file Chatsworth but if I can add filename to my concatenate it will say "Chatsworth Seats"
From cell A1 to A10 I have the figure 5412587
In cell B1 I want the figure in Cell A1 to concatenate with the figure one but in cell B2 instead of figure one with figure two etc. etc.
So B1 will be 54125871, B2 54125872, B3 54125873 etc. etc.
the formula would be Concatenate(A1&1). I want the "one" in this formula to be increasing so in B2 will be Concatenate(B1&2) et.c etc.
The problem is that I dont want to add an extra column to replace the 1, 2, 3 etc. in the formula.
The formula below works great for counting. I need to use the same formula to CONCATENATE all of the names in B:B. It seems as though I should just replace COUNTIFS with CONCATENATE and change Data!C:C to Data!B:B, but it doesn't work. I tried a search on the web using the title of this thread but came up with very few clues. Is it even possible to CONCATENATE with multiples IFS?
=COUNTIFS(Data!C:C,IF(B2="All","*",B2),Data!D:D,IF(B3="All","="&W5,Data!E:E,"
I have a simple concatenate in Excel...
=CONCATENATE(A1, ", ", A2)
Which produces:
This is, my text
Now, I want 'my text' i.e. the contents of A2 to be in bold.
I've played with the TEXT() function before, as per this page:

To get Excel to play nicely with date formats and stuff, however, my research has come to a dead end with Bold/Italic - with everyone suggesting that VBA is the only solution.
As I don't feel overly comfortable using VBA is there any other solution? (If not, is this a VBA 101 task or an advanced task?)
to concatenate across columns, say J through Q, (some of which are blank) and have the results delimited by a comma without returning anything for columns that might be blank. So R660 would read "0263B001A,FX9,FX-9,FX10,FX-10" and R669 would ...
