Instead of the whole credit card #?

If anyone knows how to format the display, I would surely appreciate it.

asp classic please.

Thank you anyone.

dim number, trimmed

number=request.form("CCard")
trimmed=Right(number,4)
response.write "XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-" & trimmed

i think that is the right syntax.

anyway, below is a working eg.dim txt
txt="This is a beautiful day!"
document.write(Right(txt,11))
Output:
utiful day!

but remember some credit cards have different ammount of numbers

i have done a script that

CardShort = len(cardNumber) - 4

for looper = 1 to ubound(CardShort)

strCardNumberTemp = strCardNumberTemp & "*"

next

cardNumber = strCardNumberShort & Right(cardNumber,4)

thinking oif you want the - also .. you would have to do a diffferent sligfhtly checking what the value is if its a number or not and if not add a - else *
