process. Even though I did not have the 1+ dialing in act..Outlook 2003 it added it to all my phone number fields. How do I bulk format all existing phone number fileds to read only (xxx) 555-1212??

Click Dialing Options and uncheck "Automatically add country code to local phone numbers". I don't believe that will affect numbers already formatted with the country code, but it should supporess future addition. However, the coutry code is proper and there should be no issue with leaving it. It is canonical. You can use this tool to remove existing country codes if you wish: http://www.slovaktech.com/phonechanger.htm -- Brian Tillman
