Batch string concatenation in Excel

Question

I have a couple hundred of cells in Excel I would like to concatenate into a single string. Is there a simpler method of doing this than going through them one by one manual

Answer 1

My preferred method is to cut-and-paste the values into an editor that allows regular expressions, then I simply remove the tabs (or spaces) with a find and replace on my current selection.

You can also use this to insert commas, whitespace, or whatever you want.

It's a ton faster than typing =concatenate(A1,",","A2",",",......)
