You could do this:

Var = -11
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=MID(R[-" & Var & "]C,FIND("","",R[-" & Var & "]C,1)+2,10) & "" ""
&
MID(R[-" & Var & "]C,FIND(""D_"",R[-" & Var & "]C,1)+2,FIND("","",R[-" & Var
& "]C,1)-FIND(""D_"",R[-" & Var & "]C,1)-2)"

I have a for a formula in a macro:
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=MID(R[-11]C,FIND("","",R[-11]C,1)+2,10) & "" "" &
MID(R[-11]C,FIND(""D_"",R[-11]C,1)+2,FIND("","",R[-11]C,1)-FIND(""D_"",R[-11]C,1)-2)"

I need to replace the "-11" with a variable name that I calculate prior to
this.

Can I do this? If so, I need your help.

I still trying to understand macros.

thanks for looking.
