For most of these cases you should probably use a single field for data entry.
You'd do one way, and other guy would do another way, especially if he has UI designer in-house.
To me, an error message saying "Invalid area code: '9o1'" is more
meaningful than an error message saying "Invalid phone number:
'9o1-555-5555'".
Nobody and nothing discussed in this thread stops you from doing just that.
