Default Text format alignment problem

I am making new strings to include a hyphen like this:

strC = strA & "-" & strB

Length strB is not fixed but is limited to maximum 6
characters. Max length strA is not limited but normally
would not exceed 10.

I would like to align my new strings in cells so that the
hyphens are vertically aligned, ideally if possible from
the right, sort of akin to decimal alignment.

I would also be interested to do similar say the "-"
aligned into the 10th character position from left.

TIA,
Steve
