String Manipulation

[mmattar]

Hello all, 

I am just stuck on splitting some text off from a string, my strings look something like this: 

3920-01-A title then goes here.

What i am trying to do is grab the 3920-01 out of the text and place it into another column in SP. Also grabbing the text "A title then goes here", and placing that into anthoer column in SP.

Can you copy the content of the compose box into the expression editor?

i copied the content of the compose box into the expression editor which then worked. I don't understand why you can type into the compose itself and it won't work. None the less, putting it in the expression editor worked
