Faxing from Outlook 2003
We are in Queensland Australia. In Outlook when we type a
fax number it is automatically formatted for you and prefixed with the area code (07)nnnn-nnnn. We can dial this number manually with the zero in front. However, when we try to fax to a Canon L1000 fax machine (via File / Print option) the phone numbers show prefixed with the international code 61. This results in the number +61(07)nnnnnnnn. This number in invalid and can not be dialled as you have to drop the zero from the area code if using the international code. My questions is whether there is any way of reformatting the number do drop either the international code or the zero when faxing via a physical fax machine. We have found that if you are faxing via a Fax / Modem you can use the Dialling rules but these don't take effect when faxing via printing. Any help would be appreciated. |

Assuming you are talking about Windows 2000 or Windows XP, Dialing Rules
will be applied only if you have formatted your phone numbers correctly: http://support.microsoft.com/default...;EN-US;Q318575 -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Julie Dietrich" wrote in message ...
