Hi
in column C row 2 I have Mr & Mrs E.
in colum D row 2 I have McAllister
When I put the formula =CONCATENATE(D2,C2) in E2 I get
McAllisterMr & Mrs E.

How do I adjust the formula to get
McAllister Mr & Mrs E. ?

The CONCATENATE function doesn't put any separators between the values
that are concatenated. You must include it yourself. Moreover, it is
easier to just use the '&' operator than the CONCATENATE function:

=CONCATENATE(D2," ",C2)
or
=D2 & " " & C2

Cordially,

Try it like this...

=D2&" "&C2

Which is the same as:

=CONCATENATE(D2," ",C2)

But why do all that extra typing! <g>
