Exactly, except you forgot the last step which is: Copy/Paste the contents of the new column directly into the input box in the Add Members page. And you must have an = sign before CONCATENATE. and missing comma before lncell. (You do not need the spaces after the commas. You do need the space before the < symbol.) If you're really new at Excel, here's some more detail. Assume that the first entry you have is in Row 2 with Firstname in A2, Lastname in B2, and email address in C2. Then you would put =CONCATENATE(A2," ",B2, " <",C2,">") in D2. Press Enter Then select cell D2 and select Copy (or press Ctrl-C) Now highlight from D3 downward to the last row of data. Press Ctrl-V and the formula will be copied to all the Column D cells, and magically the references to A2, B2, and C2 will be updated to the appropriate rows. Links in the message (1) |

I'm not sure how accurate it is, but there's a summary of the procedure in the Wiki, third heading down (Instructions for creating a list in Excel), /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Direct-Add-Members

Re: Direct adding names as well as emails
#addmembers
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHow are you at file manipulation? Or using formulas in a spreadsheet?If you can get the file with each line: FirstName LastName <emailAddress>, it should be no problem.? If you¡¯re in Excel, create a concatenation formula in a new column that takes the column with the email, and makes it ¡°<¡° + email-column-id + ¡°>¡±. Hide the column with the actual email address and export the spreadsheet as a tab delimited document. You should be able to make a space rather than a tab as the column delimiter. You should end up with a correctly formatted document that you can import.? -- David Weintraub David@... On Jan 20, 2020, at 2:01 PM, Events events <events@...> wrote:
