Questions tagged [textjoin]

Use the TEXTJOIN tag for questions that specify it in the question or could benefit from its use in a proposed solution.

Similar to the CONCAT or CONCATENATE worksheet functions, TEXTJOIN allows several cell values and/or string constants to be 'strung together'. TEXTJOIN has an additional parameter for a single delimiter to be used between all concatenations and a boolean option to discard potentially blank cells within a range of text values.

The TEXTJOIN was introduced with Excel 2016 in the following versions:

  • Excel for Android phones
  • Excel Mobile
  • Excel 2016 with Office 365
  • Excel 2016 for Mac
  • Excel Online
  • Excel for iPad
  • Excel for iPhone
  • Excel for Android tablet

It is currently not available within the standard desktop version.
