Default change text in string

I would look at the string to find the hyphen, then take all
characters after it.

MyPos = Instr(1, searchstring, "-", 1)
MyString = Mid(searchstring, MyPos+1)

Hi Group,

Need some hints how to approach this problem;

In a cell I have a text string like "10-1,10-2,10-3,10-4" or the string
could be as
"1-1,1-2,1-3" or even "100-1,101-2"

I want the string to be converted to look like "1,2,3,4....etc

Grateful for some help.

Brgds
