In this article, we will learn how to join two text in excel and numerically calculated result into one output string. We use the TEXT function in Microsoft Excel 2010 to get the desired output.

TEXT:- This function is used to convert a value to text in a specific number format.

Syntax of “TEXT” function:    =TEXT (Value, format_text)

For Example: -

• Cell B2 contains the date 12-Feb-2013
• Write the formula in cell C2 =TEXT(A2,"MMMM"), and press Enter on your keyboard.
• The function will return the month name.

Let’s take an example to understand how we can combine cells in excel and numerically calculated results into one output string.

We want to combine the data from cells A2:C2 into a single cell and ensuring that the number in cell B2 is formatted as currency.

In this article, we use TEXT function to provide the format to number, use the “&” symbol to merge the number and text together.

We want to prepare the statement for all agents such as: - Abel scored $346 in September’2014.

Follow below given steps:-

• Write the formula in cell D2.
• =A2&" scored "&TEXT(B2,"$#,##0")&" in "&C2
• Press Enter on your keyboard.
