I am not quite sure what exactly you want. Check if this helps

Code:
 cat abc.txt
person: place: phonenumber;
xyz: place1: 1111111111;

Code:
echo "Name ######## Location ######### Phone Number";  sed -e s/:/########/g abc.txt

Name ######## Location ######### Phone Number
person######## place######## phonenumber;
xyz######## place1######## 1111111111;

HTH,

       -c phonenumber
	      the phonenumber to be called

       -s ring-timeout
	      vboxputty will dial the phonenumber and wait ring-timeout seconds for the called party to accept the call, if  ring-timeout  seconds
	      are ellapsed before connect, vboxputty will hangup.

       -w wait
	      after the connection is established, vboxputty will wait wait seconds before starting the tcl-script

       -t redial
	      if the called party is BUSY, vboxputty will try redial times to get a connect
