Default auto format phone number fields in Outlook 2003

How do you set the default dialing location for OS?

With Office 2003 on another machine, I could enter a phone number into one
of
the phone number fields in a new (or old) contact as a straight 10-digit
string, or with dashes between area code and prefix and between prefix and
the rest of the number, and when I tabbe out of the field, Outlook would
format it into (XXX) XXX-XXXX. I recently installed Office 2003 onto a
replacement notebook, and this installation does not format the phone
numbers. Where is the switch I need to throw?
