    I have to deal with two (soon to be four) area codes. Some calls from
one code to the other are local, some long distance. Some within one of the
area codes are local and others are long distance.
    I've set up worksites so that when I'm in one place I select its
worksite (or the worksite appropriate to the type of call I'm making).
    All the cards have a standard format number (number and area code). I
then have worksites that handle 10 or 11 digit dialing as required.
    But then I also have different owner cards depending on the email
account I want to use as well.
    It takes a while to set up but is really easy to use, especially if you
use Avi's backdrop.
