Formatting ID numbers to insert dashes in between some characters

Hello, I am a total newbie to VBA, I am currently studying IT and just took an basic java course with the university. In the company I am working with I have been tasked to create a digital form using MS Word.

So my problem is, when a user enter their specific ID requested, 11 characters long, I wanted it to auto format to @@@@-@@@-@@@@ when the user exits the field

I am using word 2010
