Hi Paul,
there should also be a leading zero if the call is to a landline or mobile number, so you could do this at the same time using this formula: ="0"&LEFT(A1,4)&" "&TRIM(RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-4)) assuming your numbers start in A1. Copy this formula down as necessary - the first 5 characters (including the 0) will be separated by a space from the rest of the number. If you have overseas numbers ("00") or DQ numbers, the formula would need to be modified. Personally, I think phone numbers should be treated as text - you are not likely to want to do any arithmetic on them! Hope this helps. Pete |
