    Insert characters in a text string

    I need to insert a dash at several different points in a text string. Does
    anyone know a function that will do this? Any help is appreciated. Thanks

    Re: Insert characters in a text string

    You haven't provided many details, but you can use the MID
    function. E.g.,

    =MID(A1,1,5)&"-"&MID(A1,10,5)&"-"&MID(A1,15,5)
