Happy Friday, all -

I have several columns which may contain text and I would like to add "and" before the last item.

Currently, I have
This
That
The other thing

This, That, The Other Thing
Tweedle Dum
Tweedle Dee


Tweedle Dum, Tweedle Dee

<tbody>
</tbody>

using the TextJoin join function. I would like to add "and" to the last item:

This
That
The other thing

This, That, and The Other Thing
Tweedle Dum
Tweedle Dee


Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee

<tbody>
</tbody>

Yes, I use the Oxford Comma :) I've tried nesting if statements, but I get stuck with "is blank" and so forth. Ideas?
 
Brilliant! Thank you! Yes, I suppose I can survive without the comma..... somehow I will manage. :)
