Often when you are writing code or testing an application, it might be helpful to have random phone numbers generated for you.
Here is an excel formula that I use: =value(left(substitute(rand(),"0.",""),10))
try these 2 instead (thanks to John)
=RAND()*(9999999999-1000000000)+1000000000
=RANDBETWEEN(1000000000,9999999999) [needs analysis toolpack add-in or excel 2007]
Even though it works most of the time as excel rand() formula generates long decimal values between 0 and 1, it often returns fewer than 10 digits. You can add zeros at the left side to compensate that though.
Here is a shared Google docs spreadsheet with 200 random phone numbers generated for you. I am not sure how often Google refreshes the formulas on shared workbooks, so please be patient if you see same numbers generated twice.

Thanks for the update and happy to know that you and family are doing good. A 21 day lockdown has now been announced in India (I live around Kolkata) so it's uncertain times ahead. I check up on your wonderful articles often and will do so even more regularly now. Stay safe and God bless.

Excel is also my passion and I came here looking for a Num2Words formula, but in spanish. If anyone have it, please let me know.
