                                                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^
You need to replace the double quotes with single quotes. Your query 
should look like:
  SELECT * FROM TSCustomers WHERE PhoneNumber1 = '4104842172'
If the value is a number (as opposed to a string) you may not even 
need the quotes; I can't remember.
