telephone number format change in Excel
That was very helpful. I accidentally left out one thing... for telephone
numbers that are formatted as "1 (###) ###-####", the formula needs to remove the "1"1 at the beginning too. Sorry for the additional trouble. Thanks.

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.
