Hi All,
The big green guy here, just wanted to let you all know that we now have the reputation system in place, the reputation system allows you to give a visible pat on the back to those that have helped you or whose information has been helpful.

You will see an icon in every post (Light Blue scales), click this to give the reputation point to whom you think deserves it, a green square appears for a reputation with more and more adding over time.Pretty soon you will see a string of green squares appear in the top right of your posts as your reputation grows and your forum presence!

Good Luck!
The Hulkster!

Merge two Columns with a space

Hi guys

My first post here!

I have two columns in my Excel worksheet - A & B. Column A contains numbers (not consecutive) and column B contains text.

What I want to do is merge column A with column B and put a space between the merged number and text.

E.g.

Column A Column B
234 XYZABC

I want a new column to contain 234 XYZABC. There are about 800 rows.

I hope I've explained this adequately!

Cheers

John

Try in the next column:

=A1&" "&B1 copied down... where A1 and B1 are your first 2 cells to merge.

Thanks very much for the reply. It worked a treat and as you can tell, I'm a newbie to Excel.

Cheers
