Our office recently changed the format we use for phone numbers - from
dashes to periods. I want to make a custom format for cells so that
even if I slip and use dashes in the phone number, Excel will know to
display the phone number with periods. I can't find the way to type
the format so that Excel will accept it and to make the changes. Any
help would be appreciated!
