Input Mask to allow for space and dash

How do I enter Input Mask for Field (Products) with text e.g. Shorts - men's, Singlet's - women's ?

What you describe is not an input mask at all. Text values cannot be 'masked' into some standard format. Input masks are used where you wish numeric values entered (such as phone numbers or date components) to be formatted during data entry in particular ways.

Your question is too short of detail to be answereable (and even recognised really). What exactly are you looking for (Examples help illustrate your question but are not the question in themselves)?
