I have rather lengthy contacts where I want to add "+1" in front of the telephone number for the USA contacts that don't already have it. Is there a way of editing the phone numbers so that symbol goes in front of the telephone number.

Hi Ian

In v10.11 or newer you can specify %CURRENT% with the Update Field function to be replaced with the current value of that field:

1. Select the members you want to update (e.g. Search for American contacts then click Ctrl+A)
2. Select Edit > Update Member Field
3. Select the Phone Number Field
4. Specify for the new field value:

+1 %CURRENT%

5. Click OK
