Which data type is better to use for storing phone number in the following format 977-1-1234567?
Phone numbers should always be stored in a text format and never as in a number field. There are several of reasons for this. You never do calculations with phone numbers; you may have a zero at the start of a phone number, which would disappear if left in a number format and you may, as in this case, have other characters in a phone number that are not digits, which would not be accepted in a number format.

What happens when text is entered into a number field?
A number field will not accept text. If it does accept text, then it cannot be a number field. Text fields can accept digits, but number fields cannot accept other text. They will only accept digits and other numeric components, like a decimal point for example. Sometimes you will define a field for numbers, such as phone number or code numbers to be text fields. In fact, that is what you should do for that type of data. You never do calculations with phone numbers, like adding them or getting averages, so they can be stored in text fields, as there is no need for them to be stored in number fields. Also, a zero at the start of a phone number, would disappear if entered into a number field, and it would also not allow things like spaces or brackets.

Why is the telephone number stored as text on an access database?
Some telephone numbers starts with number 0 (zero) or the country code with + marks (If you type the full number properly). For instance a number like 0094111234567 or +94111234567. If this number is stored under the "Number" data type, two things can happen. 1. Default "Number" field does not support this size of data. You have to change the Filed Size to "Double" in order to accommodate this telephone number. 2. Zero (0) in the front will get removed automatically! So To prevent these issues you can use the data type as "Text" Hope this Helps!
