I discovered an issue when using Visio Extended Conditional Shape Manipulation when using a hyphen in a string.

For my Evertz protocol I am showing specific group of Visio shapes based on the models loaded in the frame.

Here are the modules loaded in my frame. Module Present parameter 6002

This SHOW Shape data works perfectly for showing shapes when slot/index 5 is the 7882DM2LB4

<A>-A|[this ElementID]|6002:5|=7882DM2LB4

However the introduction of a - in the slot/index 3 model number 7882DM-SAT this doesn't work due to the introduction of the - which is usually used as a separator between logic conditions.

<A>-A|[this ElementID]|6002:3|=7882DM-SAT

I've tried a few different variations like:

<A>-A|[this ElementID]|6002:3|=7882DM[SEP:-^]^SAT

or

<A>[SEP:-^]^A|[this ElementID]|6002:3|=7882DM-SAT

but haven't been able to ascertain from the documentation or experimentation how to overcome the - in a parameter string.

Is this a limitation or am I close to the answer?
