    How can I add a single letter to text already in a list of cells?

    I have a column of over 2000 cells which I would like to alter by simply
    adding a letter to the end of the text already in the cell i.e originally
    "Coach 100" changing to "Coach 100A"

    One way:

    Assume your list is in column A. In an unused column (say, B) enter

    B1: =A1 & "A"

    copy B1 down as far as required.

    Select Column B. Copy it. Select Column A. Choose Edit/Paste Special,
    selecting the Values radio button. Delete Column B.
