Here is a possible solution that works for either case. I am assuming that you are trying to avoid helper cell concatenation, but will allow the use of CONCAT within a formula. If that is the case the formula below should work.

=CONCAT(IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH({1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},CONCAT(B22:B26))),{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},""))

The bold red would reference the input cell or range. The revised workbook is attached.

Hope that helps.

Regards,
Ken

Excel 2016 has CONCAT so (you may need to Ctrl+Shift+Enter this to ommit it to the sheet):
=CONCAT(IF(ISNUMBER(FIND({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},CONCAT(B11))),{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},""))
or for a range (it's the same):
=CONCAT(IF(ISNUMBER(FIND({0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},CONCAT(B22:B26))),{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9},""))
edit post posting: Ha, beaten to it!
Note also the inclusion of zero in mine.

Normal Excel 2016 do not have CONCAT function unless you have Excel 2016 Professional Edition

Maybe try this formula for all old Excel versions

1] H11, array formula ("Ctrl+Shift+Enter")

=SUBSTITUTE(SUM(IF(ISNUMBER(FIND(ROW(1:9),B11)),ROW(1:9))*10^(9-ROW(1:9))),0,"")

2] H22, array formula ("Ctrl+Shift+Enter")

=SUBSTITUTE(SUM(IF(ISNUMBER(FIND(ROW(1:9),B22&B23&B24&B25&B26)),ROW(1:9))*10^(9-ROW(1:9))),0,"")
