Hello shankonit,

I see that pme already showed you working code for parsing the file yourself. Alternatively, you could use the vCard module to access the data in your vcf files. For example,

file.vcf, Note: the vCard module requires windows line endings in the vcf file

BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
N:;Naresh;;;
FN:Naresh
TEL;TYPE=CELL;TYPE=PREF:+917734807608
END:VCARD

test.pl

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use strict;
use warnings;

use vCard;

my $vcard = vCard->new;

$vcard->load_file('file.vcf');

print "Full Name: ", $vcard->full_name, "\n";

my $pref_phone_num;

foreach my $phone ( @{$vcard->phones} ){
   if($phone->{preferred} == 1){
       $pref_phone_num = $phone->{number};
   }
}

print "Preferred Phone Number: ", $pref_phone_num, "\n";

exit;
