Show/store mobile number in the correct format

[Hardyman]

Hi all,

I’m in South Africa, and our mobile numbers are in the format 000 000 0000 (e.g. 082 145 3264). When storing a number like the aforementioned in Appsheet, though, it ignores the leading zero. Is there a way to preserve this first zero? Or must the number be entered with the dialing code (which no-one over here really does)?

Thanks
