Nope, you can't. And I'm not really sure I'd be inclined to implement this. Use the notes field to tag the record, not the field delimiters. > can I search for it based on the keyword 777 5555? same... > Yes: use bbdb-phones to explicitly search phone records. > 2) can I convert existing north-amrican phone entries into text phone > entries? > > alternatively, can I add +1 to the north american entries? I imagine the easiest way to do that is by editing the .bbdb file, or doing some lisp hacking with bbdb-record-set-phones. I think there's some code knocking around in the source tarball for frobbing area codes, you could probably use that as a starting point.
