» Combining the Contents of Every N Number of Cells into One Value

Problem:

Column A contains an imported list of addresses; however, each address has been distributed over 4 cells.
Therefore, we want to combine the contents of each block of four cells so that the addresses will appear as complete entities.

Solution:

Use the IF, MOD, and ROW functions as shown in the following formula:
=IF(MOD(ROW()-ROW($A$2),4)=0, A2&" "&A3&" "&A4&" "&A5," ")
Enter the formula in cell B2 and then copy it down the column until all the addresses in column A are recombined.

Its really good, I was using "&" but that doesn't give the space between two columns.
