I need to create a key for a multilingual database (terms entered in
various scripts). The key will therefore to be numeric (0-9).However I need
a separator "999-778". I suppose there may be dash homographs in some
scripts. May I trust there is a single "minus" being used as part of the
numbering sequence in every script and specify the format as "4 numerics,
minus, 5 numerics" ?
Thank you for the help.
