Default Append value to cell or cells

Try this:

In a cell put your area code * 10000 i.e for area code 123 put 1230000.Copy
this cell, select columns to be changed, paste special==operation=Add and
then OK.

So extension 9876 would be converted to 1239876


Delete cell with area code

I have a group of four-digit extensions listed in a spreadsheet and I
need to add an area code and prefix to each. Is there a way to add that
to each cell without editing each cell?

Thanks
