    Google sheets keyword combination formula?

    Hi all

    Is there a formula for google sheets that will combine 2 keywords from a list together?

    For example

    In my attached sheet example I'd like to have different combinations

    For example

    LifeApe
    ApeLife
    ApeServices
    ShopCare
    Attached Files Attached Files

    You want to see them as a list in another column?

    Re: Google sheets keyword combination formula?

    An easy way is to insert a new row at the top of the sheet, and then to copy/transpose the list from A2:down into B1:across, and then you can just combine the left-most value with the top-most value, unless they are the same. This will give you a 2-D grid of all combinations. You could use this formula in B2 for that:

    =IF($A2="","",IF($A2=B$1,"",$A2&" "&B$1))

    and then copy across and down as required.

    Hope this helps.

    Pete
