Bob, May be I have not understood what you are trying to do, but a user-defined function in the same script as the FillinData handler of the column in question works perfectly for me. <http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/file/n4710097/before.png> Above is the original phone number format. I tried to convert it by adding an fConvert function in the column behavior of the "Phone" column, as follows: on FillInData pData -- set the text of field 1 of me to pData set the text of field 1 of me to fConvert(pData) end FillInData function fConvert pData set the itemDel to "-" return "(" & item 1 of pData & ")" && (item 2 of pData) && (item 3 of pData) end fConvert It works perfectly; here's the image. <http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/file/n4710097/after.png> I hope the images show in the post (My post wouldn't make any sense otherwise!)
