Script to add digit "9" to all cell phone numbers

Guys,

at the end of july I´ll have to add the digit 9 in front of all my contacts´ cell phones in the Address Book. But I will not have to add it to other types of phone numbers, such as work and home numbers. I´m looking for a script which would:

1. identify the field "mobile"; and

2. add the "9" digit.


The current cell phone numbers´ structure and the future one will be as follows:


Current number structure:

(021 xx)yyyy-yyyy


Future number structure:

(021 xx)9yyyy-yyyy


Would someone have the slimmest idea of how to do that?


Best regards

Hi Paulo,


I don't have much in AB to test, no Cell#s, & no Cell myself, I'm sure a script can be done, but see if a simple Search & Replace might work...
