Default telephone number format

Hi,
I have a spreadsheet of contacts, over 2000.
The telephone numbers are in the format 09999 999999 or 09999999999

I would like them to be updated to +44(0)9999 999999

How can I accomplish this as a batch update?

Regards

John


In an adjacent cell you could use this formula:

=TEXT(SUBSTITUTE(A1," ",""),"""+44(""0"")""0000 000000")

and fill down as far as required.
