I am not sure is this what you are looking for. If not post more examples.
="XX-XXX"&MID(A1,FIND("-",A1,FIND("-",A1)+1),LEN(A1)) If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "da" wrote: hello Is there a way to change the SS# in the following format from an existing table of SS#? 99-999-9999 change to xx-xxx-9999 Thanks |

I am not sure I understand the formula. I tried it and I got an error #N/A.
Is there any other way, more simple formula? You can use any numbers as long as they are in SS# format, e.g. 123-45-6789 Thank you "Jacob Skaria" wrote: I am not sure is this what you are looking for.

Type your number in A1
In B1 enter the below formula ="XX-XXX"&MID(A1,FIND("-",A1,FIND("-",A1)+1),LEN(A1)) If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "da" wrote: I am not sure I understand the formula.

It looks like you're trying to hide the digits? Could use something like:
="xx-xxx-"&RIGHT(A2,4) -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "da" wrote: hello Is there a way to change the SS# in the following format from an existing table of SS#? 99-999-9999 change to xx-xxx-9999 Thanks |
