It could be that IEC tagging mode is toggled on, on your machine. To check
this, go to pull-down menu 'Projects->Project->Project New/Existing' and
select the 'Miscellaneous Settings'. On the 'Miscellaneous Project
Settings' dialog, see if the first option 'Combined Installation/Location
and component Tag mode (IEC-style)' is toggled on. If so, and you do not
require this option, try toggling this option off and see if the issue goes
away.
If this is not the problem, it could be that there is a '-' character in
your 'Component Tagging' setup. To verify, select 'Drawing Configuration'
from the 'Projects' pull-down menu and verify the settings in the 'Component
Tagging' section for 'Tag format'.
