Formatting phone numbers in gridview

I'm using VWS Express to do a web page on a sql database for a friend.
There are phone numbers in the database - how can I format them to be
xxx-xxx-xxxx in a datagrid/gridview?

Also, is there a good source of dataformat styles {0:d}, {0:c} for grids
in general? Most documentation I have found has come after a tremendous
amount of searching.
