Hi,
You got that error because there is no function in Excel called: JOIN.
Replace this:
=join(", ",{left(C3,2)&"x","x"&right(C3,2),"x"&left(C3,1)&right(C3,1)})
With this:
=LEFT(C3,2)&"x,"&" x"&RIGHT(C3,2)&", x"&LEFT(C3,1)&RIGHT(C3,1)
Or this:
=LEFT(C3,2)&", "&RIGHT(C3,2)&", "&LEFT(C3,1)&RIGHT(C3,1)

Hi Alana,
Google Sheets formula not necessary work in Excel, these are different products. Your formula in Excel looks like
=LEFT(C3,2) & "," & RIGHT(C3,2) & "," & LEFT(C3,1) & RIGHT(C3,1)
