Need help with formula

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)

If I have a three digit number i.e. 098 that begins with number 0 how do I get Excel to display it? The formula works but its displaying the pairs without number zero i.e. 98x, x98, x98

You may apply custom format to your cells to display leading zero(es)

I created the custom type 000 and it still doesn't recognize the zero only the back pair is displayed
