Merging a full column into a single cell

[Gmoney]

Hey, if anyone can help me out with this it would be greatl
appreciated.

Here is my problem: I am trying to merge the content of a large colum
into a single cell. I want the same results as when I use the combinin
formula (ex. =A1&A2&A3...) problem is that a formula can't be longe
then something like 100 characters and Im trying to merge columns whic
contain a few hundred cells. I believe there are a few programs ou
there that do this (Excel Merge, Merge assistant) but I'm not willin
to pay 30 dollars or such a fix.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance !

One solotion which should work:
In B1 put = a1, in B2 put =B1&A1 and copy down.

Gab,

Check out Laurent Longre’s site. He has a free add in that features
the MCONCAT function which will do exactly what you want.

i.e.

A1:A10 contains 1 - 10.

=MCONCAT(A1:A10,",")

In B1 produces [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
