    I need by formula if possible, or macro .

    Re: merge(concantenate) cells by order

    What about (for "a"):

    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =CONCATENATE($A$1," & ",A2)


    Then apply that to the cells you need to display "a & (whatever letter)"

    Then for "b & c" simply change it to:

    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =CONCATENATE($A$2," & ",A3)


    Then apply this for the cells you want

    Thanks for reply,
    But it is easiest way of course manually.
    If items go down thousands rows , how can be managed manually , it is a disaster.
    So I need a formula only can be copied to down without any change.
    Sorry, your solution will not working for a huge file.
