-
- On 16th April 1995 "PhONEday", all UK area codes will be modified.
- The new codes come into effect from 1st August 1994 and the old codes
- withdrawn on "PhONEday" i.e. a changeover period. Most places will just
- get new codes, but some will get new numbers as well. PHONDYV2 does both.

- The Program
-
- PhondyV2.opo is a program that changes the phone numbers in a psion database
- file, saving you time and the effort of manually changing every entry.
- When you select GO from the menu the program gives you a list of your data
- files (in the DAT directory on any drive). After your selection it then
- checks the first seven fields of each entry and updates any old numbers to
- the new ones. It also 'leaves alone' any phone numbers without the prefix STD
- codes or any with the new codes (useful if you select the same file twice!!)
- The program assumes that there is a separator between the code and number,
- e.g. 0532-123456 or 071 123 4567, and that there is nothing before the code
- on that line (field).
-
-
- Shareware
- The programme is not free it is shareware. The registration fee is only £2,
- which will help decrease my student overdraft and encourage me to write more
- programs!

- Paging and other non geographical services not mentioned above
- Phone numbers in Isle of Man, Jersey, and Guernsey

- International numbers changing "010" to "00" ( it will not alter
- numbers stored without their code e.g 1-000-0009 [France] as in
- page 140 of S3 user manual, as in those cases DIAL uses codes
- stored in the WORLD application)
-
- The program now updates Jersey and Kingston-upon-Hull's 5 digit phone numbers
- into 6 digit aswell as the five major cities that change from 6 to 7 digits.
