Hi,
I'm trying to create a column that essentially mail merges within the cell by pulling from previous columns. For example: "[Name] is [Age] and attends [School Name] school." where the bracketed terms are columns in the sheet. Can I do this in Smartsheet or is it restricted to Excel so far?
Thanks!
Yes, you can. It's relatively easy actually.
Try this.

Depending on your country you’ll need to exchange the comma to a period and the semi-colon to a comma.
I hope this helps you!
Best,
