    I guess ;)

     

    here are my tests:

    session.custom.source 109511158543

    session.custom.target 10951115-8543

I tried your solution but I didn´t get it to work. I added a Variable assign in the VPE like this,

session.session.custom.xx = join [scan [mcget {session.session.session.custom.xx}] "%8s%4s"] "-"

Or maybe I did something wrong?
