Hello, I have a database of my customers in excel, and I want to bulk
text messgae about 75 customers, i have found a web based text
messaging service, but I need to import the telephone numbers with
0044 in front dropping the first zero. Is there a way I can format
these number in excel to do this without manually typing in each cell
the corrected format?

Much appreaciate anyones help . . .

If in A1 you have the old number entered as text (rather than entered as a
number but formatted to display with leading zero), then use the formula
="0044 "&RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-1)

Do a simple Data>Text To Columns on the data (will strip the leading zero),
and format as "0044"0
