Hi
How to Choose the format my cells, such as (For Example in D1)
PHP:
=LEFT(D1&REPT(" ",15),15)

For more:

"hesam&10space"
"Ronaldo&
8space"
"Ronaldinho&
5space"

Thanks for your help!

Using a mouse in Excel is the work equivalent of wearing a lanyard when you first get to college
How about
=A5&REPT(" ",15-LEN(A5))

How did this not work for you?
=LEFT(D1&REPT(" ",15),15)

You can fill out a cell with a character in a number format, but you can't put a specific differing amount with a number format based on length of the string

@*

Put a space after the asterisk.

There is no format that will do that. Even if there were, the cells would not actually contain the characters, it's just a format.

Use the formula.
Copy down.
Copy and Paste Special Values onto your original data.
Delete the column with the formulas.
