I think there is a UDF at CFLIB.org that does this.

Subject: Phone Number Format


I have a column in a SQL database called COMP_PHONE, it is a char data type.
Right now the phone number is in the database as 1234567890.

I want to output this as (123) 456-7980 in my application. I have tried
using NumberFormat to no avail. I get an error message when I run the code
stating the format is invalid.

Here is the code I was using:

#NumberFormat(COMP_PHONE, '(999)999-9999')#

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you.
