CONCATENATE formula problem

Hi everyone

I'm struggling with a CONCATENATE formula. I have the following data:

ABCD
1Record RECLinked RECWT/PTResult
29WTREC9WT
38WTREC8WT
476PTREC7/6PT
56PTREC6PT
65WTREC5WT
743WTREC4/3WT
83WTREC3WT
92PTREC2PT
101PTREC1PT
11
12
13
14

<tbody>
</tbody>

In the context of the above table, I've come up with the following formula for column D:

=CONCATENATE(RIGHT($A$1, 3), A2, C2)


The two problems I'm struggling with is:

  • incorporating the linked element (column B) to the desired result as per column D. The best I came up with for this was , =CONCATENATE(RIGHT($A$1, 3), A2, IF(ISBLANK(B2), "", B2), C2) but it doesn't work because I don't know where to place the "/" sign and in general just doesn't work.
  • ensuring that the formula returns blank cells for D11-D14 (as there are no entries in those rows).

Any help pleeeeease??

Thank you kindly in advance :)
