Not
exactly a lot of information to work from.
Do you
always need to insert a period after the fourth and sixth character in this particular 10 character string? Then simply substring it and concatenate it back together with them in place:
Code: Select all
YourField[1,4]:".":YourField[5,2]:".":YourField[7,4]
If that's not what you meant or needed, please feel free to post back with more information!

An alternative approach is to use the Fmt() function with a mask. for example
