Same solution, though Cudni explained it better. Copy, paste special, delete old columns only necessary if you want to get rid of the original columns.

If I understand what you want to do, you could use the concatenate function. Just insert a new column and use concatenate to add "abcd" to the contents of the existing column. Then you could need to "copy" and "paste special...values" into a third column. Delete the original column and your "concatenate" column.

the simplest approach
in next column (B) enter a formula
where a2 contains efg
and copy down the formula
"..
click and hold on the handle of the cell with the formula, and drag.."

| I have a large Access database which I have exported to Excel, I want to add a line of text to a row of cells. So for example if we have efg I want to add abcd to the start to make abcdefg.
Is there an easy way to do it other than pasting it hundreds of times? |
