    Exporting to text in a certain format

    Hello!

    I have two columns with text. For instance:

    textCOL1 textCOL2
    text1COL2 text1COL2
    text2COL3 textCOL3

    Now I want to export to a text file with the following structure:

    textCOL1 || textCOL2
    text1COL2 || text1COL2
    text2COL3 || textCOL3

    So, I want to have " || " between the input of a row. How do I achieve this?

    (I am using Excel 2010)

    In a helper column use,

    =A1&" || "&B1

    then copy & paste special >> values.

    Change the reference to suitable..
