Question for a formula, if there is one for this

[Sp3cial_k_1975]

I have a group of numbers ex: 1, 5, 12, 16, 32, 35, 36 etc...

What I am wanting to do is take 1 and 5, 1 and 12, 1 and 16, 1 and 32, 1 and 35, 1 and 36, 5 and 12, 5 and 16, 5 and 32, etc. and combine them into the same cell.

Ex: 1, 5 = 1-5, 1, 12 = 1-12, 1, 16 = 1-16 etc.

Is there a formula to do this?

How do you mean combine? And how do you want your results to look?

I was to be able to do something like

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P
1 1 5 12 16 32 35 36 1-5 5-12 12-16 16-32
2 1-12 5-16 12-32
3 1-16 5-32
4 1-32
5

Where Cell K1 equals A1 as the first number and B1 as the 2nd number
K2 equals A1 as the 1st number, C1 as the 2nd number and
K3 quals A1 as the 1st number, D1 as the 2nd number

so on and so on

Maybe this will make better sence..
B1=4
C1=5
D1=10
E1=15
F1=19
G1=20
H1=22
I1=26
J1=27
K1=39
M1=52
N1=57
O1=60
P1=61
Q1=65
R1=67
S1=72
T1=77
U1=80

I am trying to figure out if there is a formula to make W1 equal 4-5 (combining B1 and C1 with a dash between numbers)
X1 would equal 4-10 (combining B1 and D1 together)

Would you not just put use w1 =b1&"-"&c1.this would display 4-5 in w1?, dave

Special K,

Does putting the formula =$A$1 & "-" & B1 into X1 and filling over to the right solve your situation?

 

[SQUIDD]

yes sorry meant put =b1&"-"&c1 in cell w1

 

[yearnintolearn]

Its starting to become a bit more clear if your looking to "combine" and not do any sort of arithmetic to it then I believe cell W1 would contain
=($B$1 & "-" & C1)
Which can be dragged over.
Mess around with that and see if it suites what you need.
