merge cells without losing data OR format

J

Need to merge A1 with B1.
Critical to retain the format of each cell.
A1 has text that is Left Justified. [JOHN ]
B1 has text that is Right Justified.[ SMITH]

Need the merged cell to retain each format. ie. [JOHN SMITH]

I know I cannot use the CONCATENAT function with the spaces, because the
text in B1 needs to be Right-Justified.

Is there another option?
please help.

thanks.

you cannot format one cell to be both right and left justified
instead of merging the cells, you have to concatenate them in a third cell
