In this file you can find a number formated this way: "xx xx xx xx xx".
Could it be possible to change it to "xxxxxxxxxx" without touching any
other data ?
Smarter people than me (Richard M, you there?) will probably come up with a
clever method to do this in AS but I'd be inclined to import 'as is' into
FMP and then filter an FMP field to display it without the spaces.
set nbr to words of "xx xx xx xx"
set text item delimiters to ""
set nbr to nbr as string
