Abstract
A system and method for communication information between origination equipment and destination equipment, in which switching signal information is received from a calling party telephone network. Additionally, information is also received from origination equipment for use by destination equipment for displaying calling party numbers. A display for use with the destination equipment receives the information from the calling party telephone network. From the plurality of information received, a first code from the calling party telephone network identifies calling party number information, and a second code from the calling party telephone network identifies partitioning and delineation information of the first code relating to a convention of parsing of telephone numbers associated with the calling party telephone network. The parsing of the calling party numbers into fields introduces field separator characters between the fields including delimiters such as dashes, spaces, parenthetical, graphical characters and the like to separate destination codes from subscriber numbers. In addition, the delineation information can be displayed, for example, in a second display line.
