Concatenation help
I have 3 cells I need to merge into one. One of the cells is a number
anywhere from 1-16 or more. What I need is for the number in this cells to always be concatenated into a 2 digit number. Example: Cell A1 = USA123-4555678952 Cell A2 = CD Cell A3 = 4 I need the final output to be 234555678952CD04. So far I have the following formula: =RIGHT(LEFT(A1,5)&RIGHT(A1,10),12)&A2&A3 but this doesn't put "04" after the CD. It only puts "4" after it. Any ideas for Excel 2003? Thanks.

Concatenation help
Gary,
If the payment # is 10, this formula records it as 01. How do I write the formula so pmt 1 comes out as 01 and pmt 10 comes out as 10 and pmt 15 comes out as 15, etc? Thanks.

Concatenation help
Which cell contain pmt number...
=TEXT(A1,"00") will display the numeric in A1 as 2 digits (zero padded). If this is nothing to do with the previous formula and in a totally differnet cell; then change the number format of the cell to 00 "Nadine" wrote: Gary, If the payment # is 10, this formula records it as 01.

Concatenation help
Does A3 contain the payment number? If so, I don't get 01 with Gary''s
Student's formula like you posted; however, I do get the beginning part of the resulting number to be an incorrect value. For the values you posted in A1 and A2 and 10 in A3, I get his formula to display... 124555678952CD10 whereas I think the value you wanted for these values is this instead... 234555678952CD10 If that latter value is correct, then take a look at the formula I posted because that is the value it calculates to. -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "Nadine" wrote in message ...
