hello,
i have a table with correct and wrong phone numbers.

here there's no 0 before the 7, there's nothing to do.

Hello , yes, i think so ,
i'm goign to pass a query in order to check the lenght...
ok. there's spaces for somme of them, so i will remove teh spaces.
can the following replace space with empty char ?
then for everbody i can remove the where ?
update person
set MobilePhone = replace(MobilePhone, ' ', '')
where personID = '90882'

Yep, you can replace(phone,' ','') for all....
EDIT: gotta duck out for an hour....
EDIT: gotta duck out for an hour....
because you could do
select left(phone,3) + right(phone,9)
where substring(phone,4,1) = '0'
and len(phone) = 13
Will have a better go at it in a couple of minutes...
