I have sentences on adjacent rows. I am wanting to concatenate those into one row. What would the formula be to create that? Thank you for any assistance.

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
If you have sentences in A1, A2, and A3 that you want in a single cell, you can use:
Code:
=CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3)

Sorry, I didn't add the kicker and not sure if this is possible.

I have a list of items in column d, in column e, the description of those items are there. In column e, the description is put in a few different rows. So how would I concatenate if in cell d is blank, concatenate column e that is next to column d with information and also the line below it if column d is blank. I hope this all makes sense.

column d column e

xyz This is a
test

Final product:
column d column e

xyz This is a test

Thanks, this is great. Is there a formula that would be able to do the same thing? or does it have to be through a macro?

Not easily. It would probably have to be some sort of array formula that is beyond my knowledge. It would have to be done in a separate range though. Formulas cannot delete rows on a sheet.
