If you have a bunch of names down column A, and want to write a macro that adds the value of another cell to the end of each name, what would you write? Appreciate your help.

For example, in column A:

Bob
Bill
James
Ted

In column D:
2
7
9
0

After the macro runs, I want column A to read:

Bob2
Bill7
James9
Ted0

Assume it's a list of 5000 names though, so you can't write a line for each name. Thanks.
 
I have no interest in pursuing this.
Am satisfied that either way is about the same run time.

(Perhaps if you try it you'll arrive at the same conclusion.)
