Concatenate Spreadsheet Notice For Free

The CONCATENATE function allows you to combine text from different cells into one cell. In our example, we can use it to combine the text in column A and column B to create a combined name in a new column. Before we start writing the function, we'll need to insert a new column in our spreadsheet for this data.

CONCATENATE Excel Range (Without any Separator) Select the entire formula and press F9 (this converts the formula into values). Remove the curly brackets from both ends. Add =CONCATENATE( to the beginning of the text and end it with a round bracket). Press Enter.

Description Add double quotation marks with a space between them " ". For example: =CONCATENATE("Hello", " ", "World!"). Add a space after the Text argument. For example: =CONCATENATE("Hello ", "World!"). The string "Hello " has an extra space added.

To combine cells by entering a formula in Excel using the CONCAT function: Select the cell where you want to insert the combined data. Type an equal sign (=). Type CONCAT and an open round bracket or parentheses (. Enter the first cell or item you want to combine (such as A2).Type a comma (,) to separate the arguments.

Select a blank cell you will output the concatenation result, and enter the formula =CONCATENATE(TEXT(A2, "yyyy-mm-dd")," ", B2) ( A2 is the cell with date you will concatenate, and B2 is another cell you will concatenate) into it, and press the Enter key.

Use the ampersand & character instead of the CONCATENATE function. The ampersand (&) calculation operator lets you join text items without having to use a function. For example, =A1 & B1 returns the same value as =CONCATENATE(A1,B1).
