When I add a contact on my outlook, I have a location information which pops
up all the time as soon as I put a phone number. I would like to remove it as I have no use for it. Thank you for any help |

Outlook cannot format a phone number if it does not know your default
dialing location. Just tell it and be done with it. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "SOPHIE" wrote in message ...

Sophie you only have to tell it ONCE. Then the darn thing will stop popping
up. So as Russ said "be done with it!" I hope this helps you at least a little bit!

![]() Hi Russ, I do not know how to take the default out. Please, if you have the patience, take me through the steps. The pop up come up each time I try to put the information of a new contact and phone number.

This is not an Outlook question. Your default dialing location is an
operating system setting, and we don't even know what your OS is. For Windows XP, for example, you would go to Control Panel Phone and Modem Options... to set it. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "SOPHIE" wrote in message ...
