Default telephone number format change in Excel

I hope you have not been waiting since June for an answer !! <bg

As your "numbers" are really text values, you can use this formula to
remove the 1<space from the beginning of the phone number (assume it
is in A1):

=RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-2)

Hope this helps.
