Could someone tell me how to create a hard or required hyphen in Excel? I
don't want a hyphenated word to split but using Ctrl+Alt and typing the
hyphen doesn't create a hard hyphen. Thank you!!
 
Perhaps you are confusing Excel with a word processing software. The
dash or minus works fine.
 
Non-breaking hyphen is Char(173).

To enter x-ray,
Type "x"
Then, hold down <Alt>,
and type 0173,
using the numbers from the num keypad,
*not* the numbers under the function keys.
Then continue with "ray".
