Thank you for the response, but I tried both options to no avail. When I select the "text" format, it takes my number, i.e 6-1 and it returns "45444". I went to Excel options, de-selected the option you told me and it does the same. I can't imagine in Excel I can just set up a totally freeform format to do what I need.
