List field separated by comma

[Khanna Ji]

I have a list field pointing to some table X. List allows me to select multiple values. It's like a Watch List on the incident form.

It shows elements separated by comma. Like below

Test1, test2, test3

But insread of comma, I want to show them separated by hyphen (-) like below or comma needs to be in bold so that elements can be identified easily.

Test1 - test2 - test3

I dont think this is possible because servicenow designed the glide_list type of fields captures comma separated values.

Instead you can create custom column below the list field and write onchange/onload client scripts to copy the add the values into the new field with hyphen. I suggest to do this only if it is a unavoidable business need, else you should suggest business that it is not possible.
