RE: Edit a numeric column in IBM Query Manager - STRQM

I don't think QM supports edit words. Been decades though...

You may be able to define the field as an expression
Name Expression
PartNoC values left(digits(dec(023456789, 9, 0)), 7) concat '-' concat right(digits(dec(023456789, 9, 0)), 2);
Replace dec(023456789, 9, 0) with PartNo.
Digits is preferred over char because of the possibility of leading zeros. Unless, of course, you want zero suppression. Then you run into the whole left(..., 7) issue.
