Does anyone have advice on how to search phone numbers? On other sites, searching as "xxx-xxx-xxxx" or xxx*xxx*xxxx has done the trick, but I haven't had any luck here.
Thanks in advance,

A review in Dallas has this number listed.
(469) 248-5252
I searched it exactly as shown and got 0 results, but changed it to
469-248-5252
and it pulled up this review. I used the "Search this Forum" tool at the top right of the forum. Hope this helps.

Thanks St.C.
Turns out the first numbers I tried searching simply didn't have any posts containing them. Today I tried 214-764-6330 based on a BP ad in Houston, and it correctly brought up a Dallas review.
However, it's not foolproof. Today I also tried 832-476-0944 based on a BP ad in which I recognize the photos, but don't remember the agency. Search brought up only [ame="http://www.eccie.net/showthread.php?t=1771"]http://www.eccie.net/showthread.php?t=1771[/ame], and the number is nowhere to be found in the post.
