Stan in South Africa

How do I put spaces in a field
 
Office 2003 & 2007, Win XP Pro
I have a list of telephone numbers eg:
0117839178
0866610689
0917142591133
I wish to convert them to:
011 783 9178
086 661 0678
091 714 259 1133
All numbers begin with zero.
Much appreciated.

Perhaps something like this might suffice
In B1, copied down:
=IF(LEN(A1)=10,LEFT(A1,3)&" "&MID(A1,4,3)&"
"&RIGHT(A1,4),IF(LEN(A1)=13,LEFT(A1,3)&" "&MID(A1,4,3)&" "&MID(A1,7,3)&"
"&RIGHT(A1,4),""))

That may need changing if the inputs are not text but numbers formatted with
a leading zero.
