Now that I am using Google Sheets more, I was curious if I could do a similar thing.
With a little investigation, I was able to go to Tools | Script Editor and enter the following:
function CCAT(range, delimiter) {
var returnString = '';
var rows = range.length;
for (r=0; r<rows;r++){
var cols = range[r].length;
for (c=0; c<cols; c++){
returnString += range[r][c]+delimiter;
}
}
return returnString;
}
Once it is saved I can invoke it from my Sheet using something like:
=CCAT(C2:C25,";")
Notice that a range like C2:C25 is automatically converted by Sheets into a two dimensional array.
After successfully creating the function, I searched for a similar solution online and found that there are ways to do it that do not require a custom script - see
