i've tried the concatenate and "& &" method to no avail.
I receive daily reports from the people that work for me. The files are
saved in a known location and a known naming structure (initials - date.xls)
In a summary report I CONCATENATE their initials and the date along with a
path but cannot get the INDIRECT command to recognize the text line.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to use concatenate to combine two cells of data, but to only display the information if both cells contain information.
Currently using the following simple formula:
=concatenate(a1,a2)
However, I only want it to work if both a1 and a2 cells contain data. If only a1 contains information, but a2 is blank, I want it to calculate a blank cell.
If I have the following data set in cells A1:C9:

In the First Unique column (column C) I have formulas. In C2 I have this formula (and then I copied it down):
=COUNTIF(A$2:A2,A2)=1
In cell E2, I have this formula to count unique occurrences:
=SUMPRODUCT(C2:C9*1)
In cell G2 I have this formula to extract unique records (entered with Ctrl + Shift + Enter):
=IF(ROWS(G$2:G2)
Sampling table :
one
two
three
four
one
two
three
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), ", , ", " ")

I have 2 workbookts: 1) Product; and 2) Buyers.
1) In the Products worksheet, every column has data about the books' description like:
A | B | C | D | E
Serial | Desc. | Author | Pubd. | year
Column A contains serial no. of the books, ordered from 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 to .....so on...
Columns B,C,D and E, have other details of the books.
2) In the Buyers worksheet, there are two columns;
A | B
Serial | Buyer Info
These are the details people who bought the particular book order by the serial no. of the book purchased.
Required
I need to make a new column in the first worksheet i.e. Product, say F, which I want to read all the buyers' info of that purchase the book with that serial no. and concatenate them together in the same cell separated by a comma.
I am trying to create an active cell formula based of variables from given cells.
With ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=CONCATENATE(""RU"",RC[-12],RC[-11],RC[-10],RC[-9])-CONCATENATE(""MU"",RC[-12],RC[-11],RC[-10],RC[-9])"

But This does nothing.
I am trying to use a combination of Concatenate and IF formula to produce an email.
My input.
D4: First Name:
D5: Middle Name:
D6: Last Name:
D8: Organization:
Once all these are filled, I want the formula to produce a result like
FirstName.M.LastName@Organization.com
I have used the following formula.
[Code] .....
Problem is if there is a middle name the formula works fine, but in case where there is no middle name, it produces the following result.
FirstName..LastName@Organization.com
How do I remove the additional (.) in cases where there is no middle name.

I have 1200 doctor/patient records to input into an excel spreadsheet for import to an online EHR database. I can set up all the normal formulas and formatting but for the life of me not figure out how to create a custom formula to take the first letter of the patient first name and last name and add 6 figures to create a unique patient identifier.
ie. James + Smith+ random 6 figures = JS245318.
In my spreadsheet the first name is under Column 1, Last name Column 3 and the unique number generated in column 4.

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?

I have a time in cell C10 in hh:mm format, in cell D10 I want to add the text "DFL" in front of the time, remove the ":" and add "HRS." at the end of it. For example "DFL0715HRS." I have been able to get the following formula to work:
=CONCATENATE("DFL",(TEXT(C10,"hhmm")),"HRS.")
However sometimes it may not be a time, it could also be "Rest Day" in cell C10, if it says "Rest Day" I need it to add the text "DFL" in front as before and then change "Rest Day" to "RDFLEXI." For example "DFLRDFLEXI." I have been able to get the following formula to work but only if it is "Rest Day", if it is a time such as 07:15 it doesn't work.
It shows "DFL07157R0.": =CONCATENATE("DFL",IF(C10="Rest Day","RDFLEXI.",(TEXT(C10,"hhmm"&"HRS."))))
I think it is trying to continue doing something with the text function

I would like to reference information from another workbook. Instead of writing the Name of the other workbook I would like to reference through a Concatenate formula (e.g. CONCATENATE("Test"&G2&".xls")). I always get an error message. Is there any way I can reference from another workbook by using the Concatenate or any other formula?
