I would be inclined to use REPLACE
Your current approach is ok (assuming you have fewer than 100 chars post hyphen) but you would get the error you describe if there were no hyphen presentPlease Login or Register to view this content.
see also TRIM if you want to remove leading / trailing spaces etc...
My Recommended Reading:
Volatility
Sumproduct & Arrays
Pivot Intro
Email from XL - VBA & Outlook VBA
Function Dictionary & Function Translations
Dynamic Named Ranges
Thanks dude
