Phone Number Display
Using Outlook 2007 on Windows XP Pro computer. Something quite odd has
happened. Suddenly, all of the telephone numbers in my contact list are one long number (xxxxxxxxxx) rather than the area code being in parentheses and a dash inserted after the first three digits of the phone number ((xxx)xxx-xxxx). Even if I try to change the entry, it reverts back to one long nunber. Any idea what's happening and/or how to correct it ? __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4712 (20091223) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com

Probably did it all by itself. Computers are notorious in that way.

Was it changed to a different location? I doubt it changed this by itself,
but since its something that you set once and forget about, it would be easy to change it, then not notice anything amiss for weeks or months. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com/ Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: Poll: What version of Outlook do you use? http://forums.slipstick.com/showthread.php?t=27072 "Jan Groshan" wrote in message ...
