Concatenate 2 cells followed by a blank

[dickpierce]

Hello! I'd like to concatenate the 2 cells in A2 and A3 but not A3 and A4, which I'd like to leave blank. Cells A3 and A4 would be concatenated, followed by a blank cell in A5. Is it possible? Thanks in advance.



A B

a ab
b
c cd
d

try this in B3 and copy down

=IF(MOD(ROW(A3),2)=1,A3&A4,"")

Something like this in B2 assuming there is nothing in B1:

=IF(B1="", CONCATENATE(A2, A3), "")

Otherwise:

In B2:

=CONCATENATE(A2, A3)

In B3:

=IF(B2="", CONCATENATE(A3, A4), "")

Yep! That worked fine Alan, thanks!

Don't know which of the 2 formulas is better! Yours or Final's?
