In reply to Karthik. Hi Karthik, Format Painter will work the same as Paste Special > Formats, which is indicated in the article.

Formats: This option is the opposite of the previous two options. Where the previous options pasted data (formulas or values), this option only pastes formats, and is similar in use as the Format Painter option found in Excel.

However Format Painter won't be able to paste values, formulas, etc. the way Paste Special can.

Won’t the ‘Format Painter’ option do all of these tasks in one go? Please correct me if i’m wrong. Thanks!

In reply to Bev. I think what you want to use is the concatenate formula. This will join several cells together into one. If you need a space between cells, simply add " " between the two links. For example: =concatenate(Cell#1," ",Cell#2)

How can I add two different cells from the source worksheet into one linked cell in another worksheet, while still retaining the “link” in the destination cell?
