Question : I need help appending text to cells in excel

Hi Experts,
I have an excel Spreadsheet that contains the following values in column A:

LAX
DFW
JFK
etc...

I want to append US to the values so that the data looks like so:
USLAX
USDFW
USJFK
etc..

How can I do this without having to do this manually?

Thanks in advance,
mrotor

Answer : I need help appending text to cells in excel

Hello mainrotor,

Start off as Brommee9 says by selectred the first cell in an empty column and typing ="US" & A1 ... assuming row 1 is the foirst row.
Now drag the formula down to the end of column A row
Now select the column B data
Select the first row in column A
paste special values
Delete column B or wherever the formula was, column A now has the prfix hard typed.
