This document provides instructions for three methods to add dashes to phone numbers in Excel: 1. Use a REPLACE formula to insert dashes at specific character positions. 2. Use the TEXT formula with a phone number format mask to automatically add dashes. 3. Select the phone numbers and use the Format Cells feature to apply a built-in phone number format.

See screenshot: Note: In the above formula, $A$1:$B$7 indicates the range data, $A$1:$A$7 stands for the column range which your lookup the certain value in, $D$4 indicates the cell you type look-up value in step 1, 2 indicates finding the corresponding values in second column. =SUMPRODUCT(($A$4:$A$5=A9)*($B$1:$M $1=B9)*($B$2:$M$2=C9)*($B$3:$M$3=D9)* ($B$4:$M$5)) Type1 Type1 Type1 Type1 Type1 Type1 Type2 Type2 Type2 Type2 Type2 Type2 Vendor1 Vendor1 Vendor1 Vendor2 Vendor2 Vendor2 Vendor1 Vendor1 Vendor1 Vendor2 Vendor2 Vendor2 Minimum Average Median Minimum Average Median Minimum Average Median Minimum Average Median USA 10 14 18 22 26 30 34 38 42 46 50 54 Canada 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 40 44 48 52 56 Country Type Vendor Cost Result formula result USA Type1 Vendor1 Minimum 10 10 Canada Type2 Vendor2 Average 52 =SUMPRODUCT(($A$4:$A$5=A10)*($B$1:$M$1=B10)*($B$2:$M$2=C10)*($B$3:$M$3=D10)*($B$4:$M$5)) formula result =SUMPRODUCT(($A$4:$A$5=A10)*($B$1:$M$1=B10)*($B$2:$M$2=C10)*($B$3:$M$3=D10)*($B$4:$M$5))

RANK(A2,$A$2:$A$11,0)+COUNTIF($A$2:A2,A2)-1 How To Extract First Two Or N Words From Text String =TRIM(LEFT(A2, FIND("~",SUBSTITUTE(A2, " ", "~",3)&"~"))) =LEFT(TRIM(A2),FIND("^",SUBSTITUTE(TRIM(A2)&" "," ","^",3))-1) How to repeat the same text written in separate line within a cell Count linebreaks in cell LEN(B5)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(B5,CHAR(10),""))+1 To get the unique text =LEFT($N5,(LEN($N5))/(LEN(N5)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(N5,CHAR(10),""))+1)) Count cells that contain specific text Generic formula =COUNTIF(rng,"*txt*") Explanation To count the number of cells that contain certain text, you can use the COUNTIF function. In the generic form of the formula (above), rng is a range of cells, txt represents the text that cells should contain, and "*" is a wildcard matching any number of characters. In the example, the active cell contains this formula:
- 8. =COUNTIF(B4:B11,"*a*") How this formula works COUNTIF counts the number of cells in the range that contain "a" by matching the content of each cell against the pattern "*a*", which is supplied as the criteria. The "*" symbol (the asterisk) is a wildcard in Excel that means "match any number of characters", so this pattern will count any cell that contains "a" in any position. The count of cells that match this pattern is returned as a number. You can easily adjust this formula to use the contents of another cell for the criteria. For example, if A1 contains the text you want to match, use the formula: =COUNTIF(rng,"*"&a1&"*") Case-sensitive version If you need a case-sensitive version, you can't use COUNTIF. Instead you can test each cell in the range using a formula based on the FIND function and the ISNUMBER function, as explained here. FIND is case-sensitive, and you'll need to give it the range of cells and then use SUMPRODUCT to count the results. The formula looks like this: =SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(FIND(text,rng)))) Where text is the text you are looking for, and rng is the range of cells you want to count. There's no need to use wildcards, because FIND will return a number if text is found anywhere in the cell How To Find And Select Duplicate Rows In A Range In Excel? In the adjacent blank cell, cell D2 in this case, please enter the formula =IF(SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$10=A2)*1,($B$2:$B$10=B2)*1,($C$2:$C$10=C2)*1)>1,"D uplicates","No duplicates") Notes: 1. In the formula, $A$2:$A$10, $B$2:$B$10, $C$2:$C$10 indicate the range columns that you want to find the duplicate from. You can change them as you want. And A2, B2, C2 indicate the first cells in the each column of the data which needed to be applied this formula, you can change them as well. 2. The above formula is based on data in 3 columns, if there are 4 columns in your data range which needed to be found the duplicated values from the first row, and the formula will become this: =IF(SUMPRODUCT(($A$1:$A$10=A1)*1,($B$1:$B$10=B1)*1,($C$1:$C$10=C1)*1, ($D$1:$D$10=D1)*1)>1,"Duplicates","No duplicates")
- 9. Text Function Generic formula =TEXT(date,format) Explanation If you need to convert dates to text (i.e. date to string conversion) , you can use the TEXT function. The TEXT function can use patterns like "dd/mm/yyyy", "yyyy-mm-dd", etc. to convert a valid date to a text value. See table below for a list of available tokens. How this formula works Dates and times in Excel are stored as serial numbers and converted to human readable values on the fly using number formats. When you enter a date in Excel, you can apply a number format to display that date as you like. In a similar way, the TEXT function allows you to convert a date or time into text in a preferred format. For example, if the date January 9, 2000 is entered in cell A1, you can use TEXT to convert this date into the following text strings as follows: =TEXT(A1,"mmm") // "Jan" =TEXT(A1,"dd/mm/yyyy") // "09/01/2012" =TEXT(A1,"dd-mmm-yy") // "09-Jan-12" Date format codes Assuming a date of January 9, 2012, here is a more complete set of formatting codes for date, along with sample output. Format code Output D 9 Dd 09 Ddd Mon Dddd Monday M 1 Mm 01 Mmm Jan Mmmm January
- 10. Mmmmm J Yy 12 Yyyy 2012 mm/dd/yyyy 01/09/2012 m/d/y 1/9/12 ddd, mmm d Mon, Jan 9 mm/dd/yyyy h:mm AM/PM 01/09/2012 5:15 PM dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss 09/01/2012 17:15:00 You can use TEXT to convert dates or any numeric value in a fixed format. You can explore available formats by navigating to Format Cells (Win: Ctrl + 1, Mac: Cmd + 1) and selecting various format categories in the list to the left Count specificwords in a cell =(LEN(text)-LEN(SUBSTITUTE(text,word,"")))/LEN(word) Count Text Occurrences This example teaches you how to count the number of occurrences of text in a range.
- 11. 1. For example, to count the number of cells that contain exactly star. 2. For example, to count the number of cells that contain exactly star + 1 character. A question mark (?) matches exactly one character. 3. For example, to count the number of cells that contain exactly star + a series of zero or more characters. An asterisk (*) matches a series of zero or more characters. 4. For example, to count the number of cells that contain star in any way. No matter what is before or after star, this function finds all the cells that contain star in any way.
- 12. 5. For example, to count the number of cells that contain text. FIn Excel, you can use the following simple formulas to add dashes to the phone numbers with these steps: 1. In a blank cell which besides your phone numbers to enter this formula: =REPLACE(REPLACE(A2,4,0,"-"),8,0,"-"), see screenshot: 2. Then drag the fill handle over to the range that you want to apply this formula, and the dashes have been inserted into the phone numbers.
- 13. Notes: 1. Except the above formula, here is another formula also can help you: =TEXT(A2,"???-???- ????"). You can use any of them. 2. In the above formulas, A2 indicates the cell that contains the phone number you want to add dashes. You can change this arguments as you need. Add Dashes To Phone Numbers With Format Cells Function The Format Cells feature in Excel also can help you to deal with this task. Please do as these: 1. Select the phone numbers that you want to add the dashes. 2. Right click to choose Format Cells from the context menu, see screenshot:
