Michael Sabel 9 How to allow for extensions with my phone number format validation rule?
Hi, this Validation Rule works for me. It ensures the format is the following: (xxx) xxx-xxxx.
AND(
NOT(ISBLANK(HomePhone)),
NOT(REGEX(HomePhone, "\\([0-9]{3}\\) [0-9]{3}-[0-9]{4}"))
)
Question: How can I amend the rule to allow for phone extensions? If I wanted to keep the existing phone format requirement but allow for "Ext. xxxxx" only, what would I need to do in my Validation Rule? Thanks much
Mike

Can you provide an example format of the phone number which you want to validate
NOT(ISBLANK( HomePhone ))
&&
NOT(REGEX( HomePhone , "[0-9]{3}-[0-9]{3}-[0-9]{4}") )
I would like my users to also be able to save a phone number that is formatted as ###-###-#### ext. ####
