Excel combination of letters and numbers -
i have excel challenge , appreciate support! help!
i have 2 columns in excel. first 1 contains sequence of letters , second 1 contains 5 numbers (1,2,3,4 , 5). kind of looks this:
a 1 b 2 c 3 d 4 e 5 f g h ...
i want able combine every letter in first column each of numbers , output single column. in addition, need blank row in between series. in other words, need this:
a1 a2 a3 a4 a5 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 and on.. i've been thinking better part of today still can't think of anything..
thanks in advance!!
kind regards, antonio
for solution doesn't rely on contents of column or b (which useful, might not fit needs), happily increments copy down formula down rows:
=if(mod(row(),6)=0, "", substitute(address(1, ceiling(row()/6, 1), 4), "1", "") &mod(row(),6)) put in row 1 of column , copy down. times.
