uhmm can't you just write your own REGEX??

9-999-999-9999 = "\d-\d{3}-\d{3}-\d{4}"
(999) 999-9999 = "(\d{3})\s\d{3}-\d{4}"
(999)999-9999 = "(\d{3})\d{3}-\d{4}"

a simple one tho

A few tools to help you to build and debug regEx.

Here is a link to RegEx documentation:
perlre - perldoc.perl.org[^]
Here is links to tools to help build RegEx and debug them:
.NET Regex Tester - Regex Storm[^]
Expresso Regular Expression Tool[^]
This one show you the RegEx as a nice graph which is really helpful to understand what is doing a RegEx:
