I think you mean 507070 or 507070---
right? Then

<xsl:variable name="dashes" select="'---------'" />
<xsl:value-of select="substring(concat(six_digit_zip, $dashes), 1, 9)" />

This should do it! (Note: This should solve your 9 digit problem, for keeping the six digits, you should have a 
normal <xsl:value-of select="six_digit_zip"/>

Thanks,
Ash

Hello everyone,

I have a zip code tag that is stored in the regular 6 digit format and 
also with 9 digits.  For the 9 digits, I wanted to add a dash after the 
6th digit.  Is this possible to do?  If it is, can someone show me how 
it can be done?

Thank you!

Jitt
