cell value plus text

D

Deanna

I would like to know how to get the value from one cell (C81) entered into
another cell (N81) and then have text after that value. For example, if
C81=2, I need N81 to have 2 plus text (2 oranges). If this is not possible,
I do have the text in the first row and could reference that cell, but then
would need to know how to string the two cells of text together (i.e. C81=2
and C1=oranges so N81=2 oranges).

Try one of these:

=C81&" oranges"

Or, using a cell to hold oranges:

C1 = oranges

=C81&" "&C1

try this in cell N81
=C81&" oranges" or
=C81&" "&C1

You can also use Custom Formatting  Format/Cells/Number Custom; Insert
the format as 0 " oranges".
This will show "oranges", but as it holds a numerical value, it means
you can calculate with it as normal.

Dear mdmackillop
A very nice solution. while the cell is numeric and you can conduct
the calculation it also shows the text you want.
