Have table of about 11,000 records. Table design was NOT set up to store
phone numbers without format. They have been entered and stored in (333)
444-5555 format. Query works fine if they are asked for in the displayed and
stored format. The users fumble with the correct entry for the query and
would rather just key in the raw 10 digit sequence. ( ie 3334445555) for the
query. I have changed the field definitions in the table design, but that is
not fixing the stored data. If I go back and retype a phone number in, that
entry becomes accesible to the raw number query. How could I automate or fix
in some other fashion how these phone numbers were previously stored?
Thanks for your great help.( I know the answer is out there!)
