TEXTJOIN Function
Use the TEXTJOIN function to quickly and easily string content from a range of cells together.
Available in 365 and 2019 versions of Excel, the TEXTJOIN function allows you to easily combine text from multiple ranges and/or strings, plus includes a delimiter you specify only once to be included between each text value. If the delimiter is empty, the function will concatenate the ranges.

Here are the two TEXTJOIN formulas you would use.
The 1st argument is Delimiter, which is a character or string within double quotes; the 2nd argument is Ignore_Empty, the default to ignore empty cells; the 3rd argument, Text1, is the range or strings to join. We have used a table column, but you can also refer to range(s) of cells.

=TEXTJOIN(",",,tblAttendees[Attendees])
