Ughh Route Filters and Route Patterns

So I have two sets of PRI's local to two different areas. 
Both areas
use 7 digit dialing.

Everything works fine, but since changing telcos recently I
am finding
I have to create more and more route patterns to match
certain office
codes that do not seem to be local and route them out our
long
distance PRI's.

This is becoming messy obviously, and as I understand is
part of my we
have route filters to utilize.

The issue is that I am not very familiar with route filters
and
accomplishing what I want.

I need a route filter that will match on the area code and
office code
and then I guess I create a route pattern that would use
that route
filter right and send it out long distance PRI?

Why wouldn't you match on local areacodes and exchanges and
route those 
locally and then all the rest would go out your LD trunks?
That would make 
more sense if I understand what you are trying to do.

When creating your route filters, remember that you can only
attach these to 
9.
patterns. Well, you can attach them to anything but they
will only work 
with  patterns.

Also remember that there is a difference between "local
area code" (no 1 or 
0 preceeding the area code) and "area code" (where
a 1 or 0 preceeds the 
area code).

I guess that is what I want to do.  I have a list of 279
NPA-NXX's
that are local, the rest are not.  So would I have a route
filter with
279 clauses for the ones I know are local?  The numbers are
all over
the place so I can't really do ranges it seems.

But like I said I know very little about route filters and
the best
way to use them.  I have used them a couple of times for
basic stuff
like blocking 900, 700 and 500 area codes.
