  1. Select your column: Click the column header (e.g., "A", "B", etc.) containing the phone numbers.

  2. Open Find and Replace: Press Ctrl + F to open the "Find and Replace" window.

  3. Replace the '+' symbol:

    • In the "Find what" field, type +.

    • Leave the "Replace with" field empty.

    • Click Replace All.

  4. Repeat for other characters: Follow the same process to remove parentheses ( ), hyphens -, and any extra spaces.
