Outlook will mask the number to the correct format for you no matter how you
enter it. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Hoagie" wrote in message ...

Also, standard international (canonical) format is always recommended for
fax numbers: http://support.microsoft.com/?id=318575 -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Hoagie" wrote in message ...

changes to +1 (000)-000-0000. "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: How can I cahnge that?

Why would want you change it? Outlook is doing what it should. That is
canonical format and is the format fax and all other dialers need in order to dial correctly and to process dialing rules correctly. Any other format would be wrong. -- Russ Valentine "RNJackie" wrote in message ... Hi, Russ - when I enter a fa number in contacts in canonical format, Outlook changes to +1 (000)-000-0000.
