Did not work. Updated code below
Code:
#!/bin/bash
read -p "Enter Telephone number to check: " telno
TnDash=`echo ${telno:0:3}-${telno:4:3}-${telno:8}`
if  [ ${telno} == ${telno#*[^0-9]} ] && [ ${#telno} -eq 10 ]; then
  TN=`echo ${telno:0:3}-${telno:3:3}-${telno:6}`
else
if [ ${telno} == ${TnDash} ]; then
  TN=$telno
else
  echo "Invalid number <$telno> entered. Entry must be numeric and 10 digits separated by dashes"
fi
fi
 PORTEDIN_NUM=$TN
echo "TN Entered = $PORTEDIN_NUM"

Here is the updated code. It seems to work fine. But is it a good way to check input telephone numbers and convert?

Output test #1 :

Code:
Enter Telephone number to check: 214-800-3000
Temp = 214-800-3000
TN Entered = 214-800-3000
Check current log for this TN?[y/n]

Output test #2:

Code:
Enter Telephone number to check: 214-800-3000
TN Entered = 214-800-3000

script(1)							   User Commands							 script(1)

NAME

       script - make record of a terminal session

SYNOPSIS

       script [-a] [filename]

DESCRIPTION

       The  script  utility  makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
       record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.

       The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
       when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.

OPTIONS

       The following option is supported:

       -a    Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.

NOTES

       script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.

ATTRIBUTES

       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |      ATTRIBUTE TYPE	     |	    ATTRIBUTE VALUE	   |

WARNINGS

       script  can  pose  a  security risk when used in directories that are writable by other users (for example, /tmp), especially when run by a
       privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script.
