Is that an input mask for the table field or for a form control? Is the data actually saved with the additional characters or without? If the formatting is NOT saved, then it’s easy to simply use the Right() function to return the value and the Format() function to apply the formatting you want.
Format(Right(strPhone,7),”@@@-@@@@”)
If the formatting is saved, just use the Right function like this:
Right(strPhone,8)
