Hyphens aren't generally used in numbers unless it is to designate a number with a negative value (i.e. -1). Some codes for computer software use hyphens (i.e. 1135-7674-8915-4637), but the codes themselves are not technically numbers; a key code is a value that just might happen to use numbers (of course, depending on who programmed the software; sometimes a programmer will introduce symbols and letters, both lower and upper case, into a key code's makeup).
