Need to remove spaces from phone numbers in word document.

[bahav]

I have a list of over 10,000 phone numbers that I need to remove the spaces
from. Example ( 888 555 1212) to (8885551212).

888555 1212
888555 1213

I need to get rid of that space with out doing it manually.

NOTE: I am the phone company and they are only our customer numbers, no
telemarketer here.

Use a wildcard replacement (as explained at
http://www.gmayor.com/replace_using_wildcards.htm). Search for

([0-9]{3}) ([0-9]{3}) ([0-9]{4})

and replace it with

\1\2\3

You may have to run two or more separate searches if some of the
numbers have already had some of the spaces removed.
