    Is it possible to display information from 3 cells side by side in a single cell?

    Hi all,

    I want to combine the information displayed in three seperate cells side by side in a single cell so that they are compatible for the software that powers a display board.

    I've attached a photo of what I want done. I have simply typed the information into the combined cell but I want to use a formula so that it automatically updates.

    I'm very new to this so please explain in as much detail as possible!

    Thanks in advance!

    Try

    =A2&B2&C2

    If you need to delimit them, with say a comma, use

    =A2&","&B2&","&C2

    If formatting is a concern, you could use TEXT() like this with the deliminaters explicity included between the TEXT()'s

    =TEXT(A1,"#,##0.000_);(#,##0.000);0.000")&" "&TEXT(A2,"#,##0.000_);(#,##0.000);0.000")&" "&TEXT(A3,"#,##0.000_);(#,##0.000);0.000")

    or as part of the format string

    =TEXT(A1,"#,##0.000_); (#,##0.000); 0.000")&TEXT(B1," #,##0.000_);( #,##0.000); 0.000")&TEXT(C1," #,##0.000_); ( #,##0.000); 0.000")
