Derek, If you're not particular with the way the phone number entry will look like on the display or when the record is embossed/ink-printed, then use comma-space to separate digits that should be read as groups of three, and use just spaces to separate those to be read as pairs. Thus, that number 2345551212 will be entered this way: 234, 555, 12 12 or, since 234 is an area code, then (234) 555, 12 12
Observe that the space between 12 and 12 will cause the last four digits to be read as "1 2 1 2", not "1 2, 1 2" which would be the case if you used a comma-space instead, nor is it read as "1, 2 1 2" which is the case if you wrote those four digits without the space. Note that this works only for entries in the phone number fields in Keylist. Do not attempt to use this style in the phone number field of the Directory of Services.
