Default Phone Number Excel 2003

I would select column G and do a bunch of edit|replaces.

Get rid of any special character (like hyphens, open/close parens, dots, spaces)
so that you're left with nothing but the digits.

Then apply the format you want
Format|cells|number tab|special Phone number (maybe???)

Hi -

Was wondering if theres a way to make all the phone numbers in my
spreadsheet uniform. I have a list of phone numbers that were copied and
pasted into a workbook. Some of these phone numbers have parenthesis, some
have spaces, some have dashes. The phone numbers are all in Column G.

Thanks much :)!
