    Trouble Combining Cell Values

    Hey folks,

    I have two cells that need combining: D1 and C1 in that order - (because it look prettier than C1 & D1 and I can't be bothered to redo my formula table)

    I have used the formula in E1: =D1&" "&C1 and yes it works, but I've lost my decimal formatting from C1. How do I retain this?

    eg. it comes out as -- 02:00:09:08 14 and I want it to come out as 02:00:09:08 14.00

    (Decimal formula is 0.00 I think...)

    Thanks!

    BONUS QUESTION!

    Is there a way to separate the two values with a paragraph mark? I have it set to a space and then find/replace in Word later - but separating by a paragraph mark will save me a step of my working order.

    Bonus thanks!

    Hi,

    We could do with seeing the workbook, but assuming C1 contains the value 14 then use &TEXT(C1,"0.00")

    Instead of inserting the space then use &CHAR(182)

    That worked. Huzzah for the internet. Thanks.

    The &CHAR(182) didn't work, it just put &CHAR(182) in my line:

    02:00:09:08&CHAR(182)14.00

    Working formula atm ==D1&" "&TEXT(C1,"0.00")
