Unique ID: Unique ID don't copy the correct value

    I can accomplish my goals by using the Unique ID and just adding, say, "-1", "-2", "-3", and "-4" to the vehicle sticker numbers in a separate calculated field. So the if the Unique ID is 0005 then my sticker IDs will be 0005-1, 0005-2, 0005-3, and 0005-4, based on how many cars they enter. The only problem I have is that the Unique ID isn't calculated until after the form is submitted. So my unique ID may come back as say 0007 (if it's the seventh entry), but my sticker IDs are coming back as 0001-1, 0001-2, 0001-3, 0001-4 every time.

    Is there a way to put my (up to) four sticker numbers with the "-1" or "-2" strings added to the correct Unique ID into the submission database automatically?
