Hi :)
I think you can add extra characters in speech-marks can't you?  Something
like;

=CONCATENATE(C2," ",D2," ",TEXT(E2,"dd/mm/yy")," ",TEXT(F2,"dd/mm/yy))

Regards from
Tom :)

OK, looks simpler and though I would give it a try but having loaded

Do you mean that you see formulae instead of the results of those
formulae? If so, remove the tick from Tools | Options... | LibreOffice
Calc | View | Display | Formulae.

Note also that if you save your work in its current .csv format, any
formulae cannot be saved. Instead, just the current values of results of
any formulae will be saved, and the functionality will be lost once you
reopen the document. To avoid this, you need to save the document in a
spreadsheet format, sensibly LibreOffice's default .ods format.

I trust this helps.

 Hi Brian,
Sorry about last post.  Email client (Thunderbird on X64 openSUSE 13.1,
with KDE desktop) has just stalled.

I have been working on the easy bits of my problem and have a solution
except that the answer looks dreadful as I cannot find out how to insert
spaces or commas into results of the formula to get the format
presentable.  I am using:-

=CONCATENATE(C2,D2,TEXT(E2,"dd/mm/yy"),TEXT(F2,"dd/mm/yy))

I hope I can get the results looking better.

That leaves me with the need to add the "conditional" element but LOOKUP
may be the solution as just by chance the elements /2 become 1,2,3,4 as
another subscriber has seen.

On last question if I get it all worked out is how may I "freeze" the
formula results.  I need to do this as I must remove a column used in the
formula before exporting as .csv for importation into an accounting
programme.

Thanks for all your help so far.
Budgie
