MS Excel - Concat with a delimiter
Use TRANSPOSE function:
=TRANSPOSE(A1:A200)
Select the formula and hit F2
and you will get a long string with a default delimiter ','
which can be replaced with your required delimiter.
Use TEXTJOIN() instead:
=TEXTJOIN(";",TRUE,A1:A2000)
For those who do not have OFFICE 365 Excel then use this UDF that mimics the TEXTJOIN Function.
Put this in a module attached to the workbook and use the formula above to call.
Function TEXTJOIN(delim As String, skipblank As Boolean, arr)
Dim d As Long
Dim c As Long
Dim arr2()
Dim t As Long, y As Long
t = -1
y = -1
If TypeName(arr) = "Range" Then
arr2 = arr.Value
Else
arr2 = arr
End If
On Error Resume Next
t = UBound(arr2, 2)
y = UBound(arr2, 1)
On Error GoTo 0
If t >= 0 And y >= 0 Then
For c = LBound(arr2, 1) To UBound(arr2, 1)
For d = LBound(arr2, 1) To UBound(arr2, 2)
If arr2(c, d) <> "" Or Not skipblank Then
TEXTJOIN = TEXTJOIN & arr2(c, d) & delim
End If
Next d
Next c
Else
For c = LBound(arr2) To UBound(arr2)
If arr2(c) <> "" Or Not skipblank Then
TEXTJOIN = TEXTJOIN & arr2(c) & delim
End If
Next c
End If
TEXTJOIN = Left(TEXTJOIN, Len(TEXTJOIN) - Len(delim))
End Function
