Default Re: Computer bod of the org- I need your help

Sounds like you need a simple "add together" formula. If it's a combination of text and name say (where the name is entered in another cell) and the text is constant use

=concatenate("text: ",b2)

If cell b2 has the word flange in it the result would be

text: flange

If the text is variable then slimply link two or more fields in exactly the same way, such as

=concatenate(c1,d1,e1)

That way you can set up a table and join two or more fields to get a single ID/reference if that's what you need.


Does that help?
