Create a Company Phonebook File

Phonebook.xls" is delivered from your supplier.
The format of the rows in the phonebook file is:
<Name><tab><phone number><carriage return>
followed by additional rows for each entry.
The handset supports a maximum length of 24 characters in each field, additional
characters are truncated when the phonebook file is created. The following characters are
accepted in the handset number field in the phonebook file, but are ignored when the
phonebook file is created: "(", ")", "-" and " "(space).
