HI,

I have a column with phone numbers inserted. It is a varchar column and the numbers are inserted in the form 3013971234.

I need to update the column so that the numbers should now appear as 301-397-1234.
Also some numbers might have the area code and some might not example 9996576 and they need to be updated to 999-6576.

I am unable to write an update statement to do this.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
Anurag
