How would I parse the area code from this variable? Number=2515551212 Sorry for the dense question, I don't seem to be able to find an appropriate function for parsing left to right.
${Number:-10:3} if I recall correctly would give you 3 characters
starting at the 10th from the end.

If you end up with +1NPANXXXXXX or 1NPANXXXXXX then you don't have the right data. -Jonathan
