Hi There!
I am trying to write a formula that allows me to place a dash before the last character in a cell text if it is an A,B,C etc. For example, if I have a sku that reads JH004A and I would like a formula that will populate another cell with JH004-A. IF it doesn't contain A,B,C etc. I want the other cell to read False. So far this formula =IF(AND(RIGHT(A2,1)="B"),LEFT(A2,LEN(A2)-1)&"-"&RIGHT(A2,1)) works but only if the end character is a "B", I can't figure out had to make it work if the end character is an A, or C. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.

One more question, If I have a sku that is MO456CD, is there a formula to input a dash in between the last numeric and first alphabet, so it reads MO456-CD. Some of my skus have two Alphabetical characters at the end while others have only one. Basically I'm looking for a formula that can put a dash in between the last numeric and first alpha character no matter how many Alpha characters are at the end of the sku.

How about
Excel Formula:
=REPLACE(A2,MAX(IFERROR(FIND(SEQUENCE(,10,0),A2),0))+1,0,"-")

Some of the guys here will have a more elegant and smaller solution.

Your formulas would start to get pretty long & difficult to read if you used purely native Excel functions for this. There may be some of the newer 365 functions that may do it simpler, but formulas are not my forte. Personally, I would use a UDF to do this. Place the following code in a standard module & see what you think.
VBA Code:
Function InsertDash(r As Range) As String
    Dim s As String, i As Long, j As Long
    s = Trim(r.Value)
    For i = Len(s) To 1 Step -1
        If IsNumeric(Mid(s, i, 1)) Then
            j = i
            Exit For
        End If
    Next i
    If j = 0 Or j = Len(s) Then
        InsertDash = r.Value
        Exit Function
    Else
        s = Left(s, j) & "-" & Right(s, Len(s) - j)
    End If
    InsertDash = s
End Function
