A customer sent me a spreadsheet in an incorrect format for my
purposes. I have about 13,000 records in Excel 2007 where I need to
concatenate column 1 with column 2 to create the format I really need.
The problem is that each of those columns contains numbers, and when I
do an =a1&a2, if a1 contains 00123 and a2 contains 0121, I end up with
123121 when what I really need is 001230121. I've tried formatting
the cells as text first without any luck. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks!
