Concatentate A1:AZ1 separated by ~

[shortstop]

Excel 2003 is my operating platform.

I have data in a row of my spreadsheet. A1:Z1 for example. I'd like to
concatenate it in VBA Code separated by a tilde "~" and have VBA put the
result in cell A10.

The code snippet below would suffice, I assume. However, it seems terribly
inefficient.

Range("A10").Value = Range("A1") & "~" & Range("B1")
........................... & "~" & Range("AZ1")

Can somebody provide guidance to make my code efficient.

sub joiner()

Dim s as string
s=Range("a1").value
Dim i as integer
for i = 1 to 26
s = s & "~" & range("a1").offset(0,i).value
next i

range("a10").value = s

end sub

That will get AA1 as well Sam.

This is sloppy, but it does the job and is adaptable.

Sub testit()

Dim rngMyCells As Range

ActiveSheet.Range("A10").Value = ActiveSheet.Range("A1").Value
For Each rngMyCells In ActiveSheet.Range("B1", "Z1")
ActiveSheet.Range("A10").Value = _
ActiveSheet.Range("A10").Value & "~" & rngMyCells.Value
Next

End Sub

Range("A10").Value =
Join(Application.Transpose(Application.Transpose(Range("A1:Z1").Value)),
"~")
