Hello,
So I have Excel 2010 spreadsheet/workbook and 16000 rows of data. I only want to pull about 200 of the rows but they're all over the place.
I was able to concatenate the 2 columns into a 3rd column for all 16000 rows with a quick "=A1&B1" dragged all the way down, and it displays what I want to copy! But when I go to click on the cell it shows me the formula instead of the data. How do I get it to copy the text and not the formula?
Example:
column 1 column 2 column 3
junk text junktext
Red Bull RedBull
more junk morejunk
etc etc etcetc
when I click on RedBull it displays "=A2&B2", not RedBull
I would like to copy all instances of "RedBull" (more complicated data in the spreadsheet, just an example) and paste them into a new text file/word doc/excel spreadsheet. anywhere where I can get just those few lines of text.
thanks in advance!
