If you have two columns of data and you want to merge the columns into one, how would you do this?

RE: Excel

Hello Lisa
Thank you for your question

Use the concatenate formula in a new column:

=CONCATENATE(A2,B2)

This will merge them with no spaces. If you want to add spaces in between the two columns you are merging use this:

=CONCATENATE(A2," ",B2)

You can then drag the formula down so it does the whole column.

If this resolves your question, please mark it as resolved. If not, please reply with more information.

Kind regards
Cress

Access tip:

Copy a Previous Record's Values to a New Record

If you often enter the same value in one field of a table, there are two methods to save re-typing the data.

1. Use Ctrl+' (apostrophe) to repeat the value input in the previous record.

2. Change the field's DefaultValue property in Design View to the most commonly used value.
