Of course, this begs the question of why bother to use TE+ at all and not
just do it all in Filemaker:

tell application "FileMaker Pro"

set cell "phone number" to my stripSpaces(it's cell "phone number")
end tell
end tell

on stripSpaces(srcString)
-- your code here to strip spaces from a string
end stripSpaces
