Start with the "Change phone format Rule" template, convert it to
JavaScript, and add this after the first line:
//simple 7 digit phone
var formatStyle01 = "<t>$1-$2";
//simple 10 digit phone
var formatStyle02 = "($1)<t>$2-$3";
//10 digit phone starts with 1
var formatStyle03 = "($2)<t>$3-$4";
//10 digit phone with extension
var formatStyle04 = "($1)<t>$2-$3<t>x$4";
//10 digit phone starts with 1 with extension
var formatStyle05 = "($2)<t>$3-$4<t>x$5";
//7 digit phone with extension
var formatStyle06 = "<t>$1-$2<t>x$3";
var thisNumber = Field(Var1);
return formatNumber(Trim(thisNumber));
Make sure to check "Treat returned strings as tagged text."
Then, go into the text frame where you're inserting these phone numbers
and set up your tab stops. From the Variable Text Editor, click "Tabs"
and add tab stops at the appropriate locations. (The exact positions
will depend on the font and point size of the text.) You'll want to
make the third tab stop right-aligned.
