>Need to be able to enter street addresses. USA and international. Also phone numbers (country codes and international direct dialing codes). Anyone ever tackled this? What ideas can you pass along? Any resources anyone can recommend?

You could try this site:

www.componentsource.com

and search for "address". Among the results are:

"Address 2000 is a new and unique COM based component designed to ease the nightmare of wildly different national address formats. Address formats for over 200 countries are supported. Capture addresses you can use and successfully deliver mail and goods faster. Store and manage international addresses in a single, universal format for professional label and envelope printing. Deliver web forms ready to complete in the chosen country format."

I haven't tried neither the company nor the component, so I don't know if it works (well) in VFP, but you could give it a try.

Good luck!
