List of numbers with periods and hyphens unreplaceable in batch

After importing an XL spreadsheet, I found the author had used periods to note
telephone numbers (eg. 999.999.9999).  As I needed unbroken numbers for my
purposes, I attempted to remove the periods using Find and Replace and found I
could not. I attempted to turn the numbers into text using the
Format->Cell->Text menu items. I tried removing Direct Formatting.  No joy.  It
appears that there is no way to bulk edit these periods or (I later discovered)
hyphens from a cell once it is formatted that way.
