Hi @achristopherson,
Two approaches could format the phone number.
Assuming that your Phonen umber is "111222333", you want to have the format of "111-222-3333". You could refer to the ways below.
1. In Power Query, split that one column into 3 and add a new custom column.
Note: you need to change the Phonenumber.1,Phonenumber.2 and Phonenumber.2.2 to text type, then add the custom column.
2. With Dax expression, change that column1 to decimal type and use FORMAT(TABLE[PHONENO],"###-###-####")
Hope it can help you!
Best regards,
Cherry
