Hi,
The format you want is (###) ###-####.
However if your numbers has spaces it will read as text. You could use
a extra column with this formula to remove one space
=SUBSTITUTE(A1," ","",1)
Drag down and covert to number then custom format as above.
If this doen't help a sample of the data would be useful
