Just enter in the number without any separators. It'll then be converted to the correct format. I've always done it that way, and I did not realize it could be done the other way in 2001. Go to Entourage -> General Preferences, click the "Address Book" tab, check the option to "Format Phone Numbers", and click OK. From there, any numbers you type without separators, like 12345678980, will automatically be formatted to (123) 456-7890.
