Above data was exported from a text file, some items are ok (with one row/ record), some have multi rows of description.
24
The problem is that the file is 30,000 rows, which crashes Excel. How can I have a helper cell or (a better formula)?
25
Below formula (entered in Cell A7 w/shift+ctrl), it counts the # of description rows, then
26
concatenate those rows to make them as a one-row description. (Ideas taken from your feed back guys, thanks!)

=IF(ISBLANK(B7),"",IF(AND(ISNUMBER(B7),MATCH(1,--(LEN(B8:B$31002)>0),0)>5),C7&","&C8&","&C9&","&C10&","&C11,
