Hi Ely,

 

If these numbers are real numbers (not in text format), you could select them all, and then press Ctrl+1 to open the Format Cell dialog box.

 

When the Format Cell dialog box pops up, select Custom category, then copy the below format into the Type box:

[<=9999999]o4-###-####;(###) ###-####

 Then hit OK.

 

Hope that helps
