Hello folks, here is what I am trying to do. I have a column of numbers like this:

091215421R

And I need each cell in the column to be formatted like this:

Q09-1215421

There are always 10 characters in the original cell. The last character may be anything but needs to be dropped. A capital Q must be inserted at the beginning, and a hyphen as the fourth character after the Q and the fist two numbers.

Is this possible? Thank you in advance for your kind consideration.
 

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
If the numbering is the same for each cell use

Code:
="Q" & LEFT(A1,2)&"-"&MID(A1,3,7)
