combine text of multiple cells
I put questionaires results in excel worksheet. In several columns, the data
is in text format. I want to shows all the text in another worksheet as a summary of result. I can't find any formula suitable for the task. Any suggestion? eg. In worksheet "Data!" Col_A Mary is a good girl. John nice. Ruby the best. I would like to show it on worksheet "Result!" | Col A ------------------------------------------------ Row 10 | Mary is a good girl. | John nice. | Ruby the best. | ------------------------------------------------ Row 11 | Uncle O |

I'm not totally sure of the question but to combine more sels into one is generally done by the function Concatenate ex =Concatenate(a1;" - ";b2;"and so on he goes") was that the problem ? -- nijunge ------------------------------------------------------------------------ nijunge's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=26404 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=398933 |

Thanks very much for both reply. Your solution would be helpful for few
entries. However in my case, there are more than 30 cases. It will be time consuming. BTW, I notice that using the PIVOT Table wizard can do something like this and can have some descriptive statistics. Please refer to the help of PIVOT table in excel help.
