    removing characters from phone number

    I have phone numbers in this format (111) 234-5678. I need to remove all the dashes, spaces and parenthesis so that it is formatted like this 1112345678. Any suggestions will be appreciated,

    Thanks

    Try Find/Replace each of those characters one a time.
    Where there is a will there are many ways.
