Reduce asterisks in Check Amount String

Hi BIP Gurus,

I have a requirement to display the check amount with no more than 4 asterisks.

Is it possible to recognize $*****1,476.05 (5 asterisks) and display it as $****1,476.05 (4 asterisks), or extreme case of $*********4.36 (9 asterisks) and display it as $****4.36 (4 asterisks) and leaving alone other amounts already with 4 or less asterisks?

I'm really hoping to not modify the R04572, or the business function which adds the asterisks (B0400400).

Ben again,
 
Based on your example, any amount less than 999,999.99 will be padded with 1-4 asterisks. So check for that.

If the My_Amount_ID99 is less than 999,999.99 then $<?xdofx:lpad(My_Amount_ID99,10,'*')?>, else $<?My_Amount_ID99?> where My_Amount_ID99 is the XML tag for the formatted amount without the asterisks.
