Default removing unwanted characters in a cell

Is there anyway to take the value in a cell and remove any spaces or
dashes "-"?

I'm needing to find data in it's simplest form and when operators
enter values, they are often inserting inadvertant spaces or in some
cases, dashes. Is there a macro or even an excel formula that will
remove any spaces or dashes?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
