    Numbers to text in specific format

    Hi there:

    If in a table I have three columns with numbers such as:

    A B C
    1 898 90909

    what formula can I use to convert them to text such that the output looks like: 1:898-90909 (as I said I want it in this format in text).

    Thanks in advance!

    Why put &"" at the end of the formula?
