PHONE NUMBERS UPDATE

[Marshall]

I am trying to update a table call "SALES".
The column name is call "PHONE"
The phone numbers are in these formate==> (AAA)BBB - CCCC
(AAA) is the area code.
BBB is the set of numbers following the area code.
CCCC represent the last four numbers.

I need to update the BBB to ZZZ in order for my phone number to look like this
(AAA) - ZZZ-CCCC

Please help.
