Posted: Fri Apr 27, 2012 1:20 pm Post subject: Phone Number Format |
|
|
I was making a phone list for a large group of people and though " you know, it would be SO much easier if there was a format for phone numbers" so i was wondering if this could possibly be implimented or if i could add this format to the currently available ones i would like to format the number like this (###)###-#### but i have no idea how to do it. if this could be addressed that would be nice.  _________________ ---SMILE--- it'll make your day better!! |

Hey there. I actually know the answer to this one (yay me!). Right click a cell and choose to format the cell. You should be in the Numbers tab, but if not, click on it. Now, see at the bottom where it says Format code? Type in (000) 000-0000
The zeroes show the computer exactly how many digits you should expect to see. The parentheses should show up automatically after you finish typing in the number. |
