    Concatenating several cells

    I want to combine all the words on column B into one cell and separated by " | " found on cell B2. I have 1,000 words to combine and have each word separate by that "|". Sometimes, the words in each shell is more like a phrase. So, some cells have phrases and not just a single word.

    I want the result to look like the one on C6.

    Is there an easy way to get a formula/function to capture 1,000 or more words?

    Thanks,

    The easiest method is to use a UDF which can be found here.

    You apply it as: =ConcatAll(A2:A6,B2)

    Here is an alternative that is not as robust but is targeted specifically towards the use described in the OP and so also simpler:
