In this tutorial you'll learn 3 easy methods to add text to the beginning or end of your values in Microsoft Excel. You don't want to add values manually. Instead you can use either of these 3 methods: Excel Flash Fill, Excel Formulas to combine cell values and a surprising trick that visually adds text but it doesn't change the actual value in the cell. This is specially great if you want to add text to numbers but still use the number in further calculations.

Key Techniques Covered:
- Flash Fill Method: Introduces Flash Fill, a powerful Excel tool introduced in Office 2013, for modifying data based on patterns. The method is demonstrated with examples like appending "ID" before numbers and placing characters before names.
- Using Formulas: Addresses situations where dynamic results are needed, and the source data changes. The tutorial explains how to use formulas for appending text, ensuring updates in revised data if the source values change.
- Custom Number Formatting: This method focuses on displaying data in a specific manner. It involves supplementing existing data with additional text and numbers, while keeping the original data usable for calculations. We demonstrate adding text like "miles" next to numbers in a cell.
