How do I automatically format the phone number?

[Guest]

I have a lot of contacts with phone numbers formatted in many different ways
which I want to be fromatted like (XXX) XXX-XXXX. Is there an easy way to
apply the same formatting to all phone numbers?

The formats are of all different ways such as
(XXX) XXX-XXXX
(XXX)XXX-XXXX
(XXX) XXXXXXX
(XXX)XXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXX
*XXX

What do you have set in your Phone and Modem settings in Control Panel?

Hmmm... Nothing. I never even went in there. BTW, I am running XP SP2. What
option under phone and modem options in control panel do I want to change or
modify?

Thanks.
