Default Lettermerge problem

I am using Word 2003 and a CSV data source to create a mailmerge. Amongst the
data elements is a field that contains an element in the format
12345678-9878. This item has to merged into 2 different fields, where the
first merge field has to show the first 8 numbers before the "-" and the
second merge field has to show the last 4 numbers after the "-". Is this
feasible, and if so how. I have checked the online help and simply cant find
anything that helps me do this.

Changing the original CSV file content is NOT an option.

Thanks in advance.
