Hi Tim

Try Text to Column..in Office 2007 -
- Insert a new blank column after the column with phone numbers
- Select the entire column containing the phone numbers
- press Alt + D + E
- Delimited - Other - Colon (
- Finish
This will remove the word phone from the column.

Thanks

In 07, how do I remove text from a cell. Currently reads "Phone:
123-123-1234" and would like to remove the "Phone:" part. I tried
=RIGHT(M2,14) but some have extensions.
