Sorry.
Michael's solution will not produce reliable results as it will return at least two results for many different phone numbers, with no way to tell which is the correct result.
Really? As I said, I don't claim to be an expert on phone numbers, but if they're ambiguous, how do they work? That is, if a number can start with a valid prefix for two different places, where does the call go? Surely, there must be a way to parse a phone number that correctly directs the call. The question then becomes, how can we implement that method in mysql? Do you have a solution?
