On excel, can you merge the data from 2 diferent cells

I import data from another program to excel, and it place the last name on
one column and First name on another column. Is there a simple way to combine
both without cutting and and pasting.

Assuming that the last name is in cell A1 and the first name is in cell B1

=A1&" "&B1

Where Col A has last name and Col B has first name, you can either do:

=a1&", "&a2 (where the ", " inserts a comma and a space) OR
=CONCATENATE(A,", ",B1) (again where ", " inserts a comma and a space in
between the last and first names)

Good luck.
