Hi and Welcome to the Board.
You've really given us nothing to work with...
How long are the numbers ??
Are there multiple dashes ??
Where are the dashes in the numbers ??

I'm gonna take a guess
try
Code: 
=SUBSTITUTE(A1,"-","")

Maybe you could consider sharing a sample of the data !

Welcome to the MrExcel board!

Without more information I'd suggest using Find/Replace to Find '-' and Replace with nothing.
