Hey, that's the same company that has design kits with parts numbers such
as... GRM18-KIT--------E, with helpful notes in the catalog that, yes, the
dashes are a part of the kit's SKU, and need to be included in ordering.
(E.g., page 5 of
http://www.murata-northamerica.com/murata/murata.nsf/design_kit_catalog_09g06f.pdf
.) One has to wonder who came up with such a brilliant idea...

There oughta be a law that any string of four or more digits (like,
say, my checking account number) should be delimited somehow. The
telephone company figured this out long ago.

Hey, we could add dashes every 4 characters in the above, turning

GRM18-KIT--------E

into

GRM18-KIT----------E

Reminds me of a program manager I once worked with who came up with a
"configurator" system by which a prospective customer could order a
custom display by selecting from a set of letters in each of several
positions in the part number. Some of the "configurable" displays
thus described would have been impossible to build, others would have
had no useful function.
