I want a cell to display the numerical value of another cell plus a text string after the number. Can this be done?

Thanks,

Yes
If the number is in A1 and the text in A2, then in A3 enter

=A1&" "&A2

Depending on your real needs, there may be a better way using formatting or some other technique
