Hi Pushpa,

This should help you:

Step 1 - Create a web resource in CRM with the following Javascript code:

Within CRM, go to Settings > Customizations > Customize the System > Web Resources.

function FormatPhoneNumber(context)

{

var oField = context.getEventSource().getValue();

var sTmp = oField;

if(typeof(oField)!= "undefined" && oField!= null)

{

sTmp = oField.replace(/[^0-9]/g, "");

switch (sTmp.length)

{

case 10:

sTmp = "(" + sTmp.substr(0,3) + ")" + " " + sTmp.substr(3,3) +"-" + sTmp.substr(6,4);

break;

default:

alert("Phone must contain 10 numbers.")

break;

}

}

context.getEventSource().setValue(sTmp);

}

In the hosted version of CRM, you have to copy the above code into Notepad and then save it with a ".js" extension so that you can upload this code.

Step 2 - In the field properties of the form field you want to use this code on:

a) Add a reference to the web resource you created in step 1 by going to the field's "form libraries" settings and referencing the above code.

b) Then add an "event handler" for the phone field's on change event. In the "function" field, use "FormatPhoneNumber". Also, click on the "pass execution context as first parameter" check box.

Hi Pushpa,

Here is a Code

// call this function to format any phone number(10 digit)
// in the following format: (xxx) xxx-xxxx
// pass context to the function
function FormatPhoneNo(context){
try{
  var nvsField = context.getEventSource().getValue();
  var nvsTmp = nvsField;
  if (typeof (nvsField) != "undefined" && nvsField != null){
   nvsTmp = nvsField.replace(/[^0-9]/g, "");
   switch (nvsTmp.length){
    case 10:
     nvsTmp = "(" + nvsTmp.substr(0, 3) + ") " +
     nvsTmp.substr(3, 3) + "-" + nvsTmp.substr(6, 4);
     break;
    default:
     alert("Phone must contain 10 numeric digits.");
     break;
   }
  }
context.getEventSource().setValue(nvsTmp);
}catch(err){
  alert(err.message);
}
}

Hope that helps

Thanks
