Characters in a formula
Hello - I have a JOIN formula that aggregates information from 3 different columns into 1. I have included a line break and added a character in front of each line.
Current formula: =JOIN([Contract Value]@row + " " + CHAR(10) + CHAR(151) + Term@row + " " + CHAR(10) + CHAR(151) + Summary@row)
Result of this formula:
Info in column 1
□ info in column 2
□ info in column 3
I have 2 questions:
- The character right now is just a empty square, no matter what code I insert. Is there a way I can make this into an actual bullet point symbol?
- How can I include the character in the first line (info in column one)?

Hi
Question 1
How about using UNICHAR(10625) instead of CHAR(151). That gives a little black bullet point.
Question 2
The character is being inserted by the CHAR(151). To add another of these, you need to add another CHAR(151) where you want the character to appear. For example
=JOIN(CHAR(151)+[Contract Value]@row + " " + CHAR(10) + CHAR(151) + Term@row + " " + CHAR(10) + CHAR(151) + Summary@row)
So if you want to use UNICHAR(10625) and have an extra one, your formula will be
=JOIN(UNICHAR(10625)+[Contract Value]@row + " " + CHAR(10) + UNICHAR(10625) + Term@row + " " + CHAR(10) + UNICHAR(10625) + Summary@row)
