It is impossible to help you based on what you have asked. Where would one find the hyphens, apostrophes, blanks, periods, suffixes, prefixes, etc.?
Give us three to five sample rows and the desired outcome.
Explain what is wrong with your current statement.
And include your version to 3 decimal places.
