Answer 1

The formula for Dutch Excel:

=KLEINE.LETTERS(
    TEKST.SAMENVOEGEN(
        DEC.N.HEX(ASELECTTUSSEN(0;MACHT(16;8));8);"-";
        DEC.N.HEX(ASELECTTUSSEN(0;MACHT(16;4));4);"-";"4";
        DEC.N.HEX(ASELECTTUSSEN(0;MACHT(16;3));3);"-";
        DEC.N.HEX(ASELECTTUSSEN(8;11));
        DEC.N.HEX(ASELECTTUSSEN(0;MACHT(16;3));3);"-";
        DEC.N.HEX(ASELECTTUSSEN(0;MACHT(16;8));8);
        DEC.N.HEX(ASELECTTUSSEN(0;MACHT(16;4));4)
    )
)
