PHONE NUMBER formatting
All I want to do is have my phone numbers appear (555) 555-5555, but
for some reason I keep getting all these weird -- in between the numbers. I read that I should put "(999) 999-9999"! as an input mask, but that didn't work. Does anyone have a suggestion? I appreciate the help! Thanks, Carla |

PHONE NUMBER formatting
Carla,
Format / cells / special / phone numbers or custom [<=9999999]###-####;(###) ###-#### you just cant put in the dash when entering the number, enter numbers only. Beege wrote in message ups.com...

PHONE NUMBER formatting
Huh...when I use my table under design view, format does not have any
option. Should I be making an input mask instead? Right now, when I input a phone number in forms, it will say (###) ###-#### and won't let me overwrite it. I must have screwed something up? Any advice? |
