Output Excel formula

BrendaRdz
5 - Atom

Dear all,

 

I am trying to add a new formula where the output in excel will be the formula CONCATENATE, it is not working though.

 

Here the current formula:

 

"=CONCATENATE(A"+tostring([data]+1,0)+",B"+tostring([data2])+1,0)+")"

 

I would like Alteryx to recognize that the execution should be performed per row number.

 

I am getting a parse error. Hope you can help me with this.

Hi @BrendaRdz,

 

Looks like you've just got an extra ) causing the parse error! The unnecessary one is right after '[data2]'.

 

Here is the corrected version:

"=CONCATENATE(A"+tostring([data]+1,0)+",B"+tostring([data2]+1,0)+")" 

 

Hope this helps!

Hi @BrendaRdz if you're trying to concatenate in Alteryx, then the function is simply '+'. So your formula tool would be:

"(A"+tostring([data]+1)+"B"+tostring([data2]+1)+")"
