convert phone format
I need to convert my data base list of phone numbers after exporting them to
excel. they land in the following format 123-456-7891. I need a formula that will add a "1" to the front and carry the balance without the "-". The result need to be a string that looks like this 11234567891. Is this possible? -- rustyrunrite |
