hi,
ok, my english is not as good as it should be^^ (i don't know what you 
mean with "I need to move between characters
automatically." and "But I need
to display both scores before the data entry.")

but if i understood, you  want to have the slashes in the clear textbox 
and if one section is complete automatically jump behind the slash?
