How can I construct an email address from a cell containing firstname lastname?

Time:03-20

I wish to either automatically add code as I create an Excel macro, or if necessary manually insert the code into an existing macro: Construct email addresses in a column, from another column whose cells contain firstname lastname. Example: John Smith in column A becomes [email protected] in column B. The mailbox name is always the same, of course. The code will process all the rows in the column.

So:

=left(A1,1)&mid(A1,find(" ",A1,1) 1,20)&"@aol.com"

I have just checked the order of the arguments in mid() and it works.

Note if there are double barreled names then you have to consider that.

You may try in this way as well, if there is only FIRST NAME & LAST NAME,

• Formula used in cell B2

=CONCAT(LEFT(A2),REPLACE(A2,1,FIND(" ",A2),""),"@aol.com")
