Need 1 part of a formula to always point to the same range? use $ signs: $V$2:$Z$99 will always point to V2:Z99, even after copying
Hi;

i'm sure that, one of the professionals will post a shorter formula but, this is my suggestion; (you may need to change " ; " with " , " )

=MID(A1;FIND("_";A1;1)+1;FIND("_";A1;1))&"_"&MID(A1;1;FIND("_";A1)-1)
