    Importing from one sheet to another
    Trying to figure out how to import information from multiple cells into one on another sheet.

    Bob | bobby | 111 bobby ln | macville |TN | 99999

    To one cell

    Bob bobby
    111 bobby ln
    Macville, tn 99999

    In a format to print labels? Any help or direction would be great.

    Not sure what you mean by import. But concatenating values from multiple cells into one is pretty simple.
    Code:

        A    B        C              D      E    F
    1 bob | bobby | 111 bobby ln | macville |TN | 99999

    The first concatenation formula would be:
    =A1&" "&B1

    Next line:
    =C1

    Last line:
    =D1&", "&E1&" "&F1

    I believe that is what I am looking for. I am downloading sheets from a Mary Kay web site, it saves it in the back ground as excel and access files. I want to format a section that I can cut and paste into a section and have the other excel page into readable/printable labels.

    Well, concatenation actually allows you to format a SINGLE cell with all those strings and it will format them correctly for label-type printing.

    =A1&" "&B1&CHAR(10)&C1&CHAR(10)&D1&", "&E1&" "&F1

    As long as you format the cells to AUTO-WRAP, this will look perfect. See the attached example.
