HI, i have look but not sure the correct terms of what i need

I have some urls i need to redirect for my site and there are hundreds and i wondered if it possible to take whatever is in column A, and paste it 10 characters into column B

e.g., Cell A1 is pasted directly after Redirect / in B1, with http://www.mysite.co.uk/ following. so the end result will be
Redirect /updates/preview.php?p=5&cat_id=0 http://www.mysite.co.uk/

AB
1updates/preview.php?p=5&cat_id=0Redirect / http://www.mysite.co.uk/

Test for Multiple Conditions in IF?
Use AND(test, test, test, test) or OR(test, test, test, ...) as the logical_test argument of IF.
Is this what you mean?

Welcome to the forum. It's easiest to build your string in a third column (say C). In C1 put the formula:
=LEFT(B1,10) &A1&MID(B1,11,LEN(B1))
and fill down. To make sure there are no changes when you are finished copy then paste values over the strings created.
