To combine test into one cell use: A1&B1&C1 etc or if spaces are needed A1&"
"&B1&" "&C1
To convert the results to values use Edit followed by Paste Special/Values
Select all the cell with formulas, click the Copy tool, immediately open the
Edit menu, locate PasteSpecial and check the Value box.

Or did you mean taking data from more that one Sheet?
=[Book2.xls]Sheet1!$A$1

sorry, i think my post was slightly vague

i meant a mail merge, as in i have info in a database and
would like to produce a form based in an excel sheet which
is then printable for all records which appear in the
database, ie name, address etc

apologies

You could build a macro that would take the imported data and populate a
worksheet. Then print it, then advance to the next record, populate, print,
etc.

But it's not built into excel like it's built into Word.
