I'm working on a procedure that will format an existing column of phone
numbers into (xxx) xxx-xxxx format - at the same time cleaning up any
unwanted characters.

Does anybody know of a procedure that I can leverage?

TIA

as select '('||substr(phone,0,3)||')
'||substr(phone,4,3)||'-'||substr(phone,8,4)) from contacts

unwanted characters - put a filter view over it or alternatively clean up
the data.
