*Abe*
*Benzen*

*Monintor*

try it with a helper column. If the first string is in A1 then use:
=A1&"*"
Then copy the helper column and insert it as values in column A.

Or try:

Sub Test()
Dim LRow As Long
Dim rngC As Range

With ActiveSheet
LRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For Each rngC In .Range("A1:A" & LRow)
rngC = rngC & "*"
Next
End With
End Sub

I have problems making it work because of * being a wildcard character.

Like what Claus Busch said :

try it with a helper column. If the first string is in A1 then use:

in B1 for example

=A1&"*"
Then copy the helper column and insert it as values in column A.

If you want to have the "good" text in colomn A (I dont recommand this).
