• Thanks for that it does what I want for the example phone number.

    I also have other phone numbers though they might be

    +44 (0) 1908 123 456

    or

    +44 (0) 121 430 4992

    The only constants are the first 7 chars the rest are fluid.

    +44^(0)^XXX^YYYYYYY

    XXX could be 3 or 4 or 5 chars and YYYYYYY is the remainder of the number.

    When I get a moment I will have a play to see if I can get something to work just am a bit busy at the moment to spend a lot of time on it.

    Again thanks for your help
