Phone Number format (000)000-0000

Is there a formula that would format all different types of formatted phone numbers into (000)000-0000?

 

For example: A file may have the following formats:

1231231234

123-123-1234

123123-1234

123-1231234

Hi,

Let me know if this works.

 

Output:

The main part is the formula tool with this formula:

Attached workflow for your reference.

Benn

@reginawhelan ,

 

Please try:

 

Regex_Replace([phone number],"\D*?(\d{3})\D*?(\d{3})\D*?(\d{4})",'($1)$2-$3')

 

 cheers,

What if you had some phone numbers that didn't have the area code populated? Maybe to get the end result to be like (000) 123-4567.

Hi,

 

How do I apply this formula to a column called Telephone_Number.

Please let me know.

In the Telephone Number I have these formats but additionally I have European Phone numbers.

1231231234

123-123-1234

+44 (0) 1234-4567-568

+39 0883 1978041

 

For the European phone numbers I need it to be +44 (0) 1234-4567-568

Let me know

Regex_Replace([phone number],"\D*?(\d{3})\D*?(\d{3})\D*?(\d{4})",'($1)$2-$3')

How can I use this formula but the date format would be:

(000) 000-0000

Any help is appreciated.
