How to use CONCATENATE?

n Excel, CONCATENATE (older function) and CONCAT (newer function) are used to combine multiple text strings into one. The syntax for CONCATENATE is =CONCATENATE(text1,
text2, ...), and for CONCAT, it is =CONCAT(text1, text2, ...). Both functions work similarly by appending text values together. However, CONCAT replaces CONCATENATE in newer Excel versions, offering improved functionality. For more flexibility, the TEXTJOIN function allows you to combine text with a delimiter, such as a space or comma. The syntax for TEXTJOIN is =TEXTJOIN(delimiter, ignore_empty, text1, text2, ...). It also allows ignoring empty cells, making it ideal for cleaner concatenation. These functions help automate the combination of data in cells, saving time when dealing with large datasets. Keep in mind that CONCATENATE has been deprecated, so using CONCAT or TEXTJOIN is recommended for better compatibility with newer Excel versions.
