    How to combine IF, TEXT & LEFT formulas that already work?

    Didn't know if I had to start another thread... my previous one was solved http://www.excelforum.com/excel-gene...-a-symbol.html

    Now the issue is in combining the formula that was given to me with the one I had...

    I have:

    =IF(A4="ALS",TEXT(B4,"001000")&TEXT(C4,"00000000000000"),IF(A4="REL",TEXT(B4,"000")&TEXT(C4,"00000000000000000"),IF(A4="CLS",LEFT(C4(FIND("-",C4),"")))))

    I was given:

    =LEFT(C5,FIND("-",C5)-1)

    I tried to as you can see in the attachment but get #ref! as an error... not sure why.
