remove space in excel data 2

[leyland]

Hi
I have several phone numbers in the form of 01228 4554388. I want to remove the space and hence have another column with 012284554388 in. How can I do that in excel?

thanks in advance

Seeing how these are phone numbers, they should always contain the same number of digits. Because of that, this will work:
=left(A1,5)&right(a1,7)

[tab]or you could use this:
=Substitute(A1," ","")

There are many other ways as well
