    Sure is Tiger Lily Girl (Sounds more suited to a dating website!!)

    =concatenate(a1,b1,c1,d1 etc

    OR.....if you want to insert text etc...

    =""&a1&" add text etc here "&b1&" more text if you want "&c1&", "&d1&""

    My preference is the second option as it's really flexible.

    RE: Easy way to take data from multiple columns

    Let me clarify a little more. That didn't do what I wanted it to. Basically I have a new column E. I want the data to go into one column.

    so that I can go from (4 columns):
    A1 B1 C1 D1
    A2 B2 C2 D2

    to this (one column):

    A1
    B1
    C1
    D1
    A2
    B2
    C2
    D2


    I'm trying to find an easy way without just cutting and pasting each one or just using =A1 in E1, etc.
