Facing issues when joining rows of A column data into single cell at B column of 1st row-CodePudding

I just want to bifurcate around 14900 rows of A column into 50 sets at each row in B column keeping @ as delimiter. Example: 12345@5432333@3232@... till 50th row of A column. Like that I need to build 50 sets till row count of A column(14900) in each row of B column.

I developed code for the same using =TEXTJOIN("@",TRUE,A1:A14900) but this is failing, may be due to length issues in single cell. my plan is to break the output of this formula into 50 sets and place the same into each row of B column. if i use loop to make the formula dynamic then im worrying the length of cell again

    --------     --------
    12345566     12345566@333344444@[email protected] 50th row
    333344444    next 50 sets
    98ZBRE322    next 50 sets
    1ZAZAZAQQ    next 50 sets

Is there any best way to solve this issue?

Concatenate Ranges

Excel

In cell B1 use:

INDEX

=TEXTJOIN("@",TRUE,INDEX(A$1:A$14900,(ROW()-1)*298 1):INDEX(A$1:A$14900,ROW()*298))

OFFSET (Volatile)

=TEXTJOIN("@",TRUE,OFFSET(A$1:A$298,(ROW()-1)*298,0))

and copy down to cell B50.

VBA

Sub ConcatSets()
    With ActiveSheet.Range("B1:B50")
        ' INDEX
        .Formula = "=TEXTJOIN(""@"",TRUE,INDEX(A$1:A$14900,(ROW()-1)*298 1):INDEX(A$1:A$14900,ROW()*298))"
        ' OFFSET (Volatile)
        '.Formula = "=TEXTJOIN(""@"",TRUE,OFFSET($A$1:$A$298,(ROW()-1)*298,0))"
        ' To keep only values use the following:
        '.Value = .Value
    End With
End Sub
