Formatting Auto Generated Wires

Hi

I'm starting a new project that's a bit different than our standard.

In the project the drawings are sequentially numbered sheets (unique drawing number).  Format is B-## for Bill of Materials

M-## for mechanical layouts

E-## for schematics

L-## for label/tags/etc.

 

So drawing E-01 would be the first electrical schematic, but it could be the 6th sheet in the drawing set.

 

The way the line numbers are set up are they reference the electrical sheet and a sequential number

1-00

1-01

...

2-00

2-01

 

And the wire number is be the numerical version of the line reference, with a suffix, starting at 0.  So a wire starting on line 1-00 would have a wire number of 1000.  The third wire originating on sheet 3-64 would be 3643.

 

I can't seem to find a way to have the line number to auto-populate with the '-' but to exclude it in the wire number auto generate,

 

Is this something that can be done?

 

Thanks
