Input Mask

[Allison]

I have established to calculated labels in two different
tables by concatenating 3-4 different fields on both
tables.
I want to join the labels on my tables since they are
unique to both tables but before the join I want to put
dashes in the numbers like so:


1-R01-AI049417-01A2-5751

How can I accomplish this???

Use concatenation:

=[field1]&"-"&[field2]&"-"&[field3]...
<-*-><-*-><-*-><-*-><-*-><-*-><-*-><-*->
