Automatic formating telefonnumbers

O

Otto Mörth

Dear Entourage-Experts -

Since years! I have a problem, when I want to put in telefonnumbers in
entourage. I always get the format 000 ­ 0000 when I want to have 000 00 00
etc.

There is an automatic formating function activ, which I cannot stop. Can
somebody tell me, where to stop this automatic function?

My system is Apple Mac OS X 10.3.4, the newest Office-Version is installed.

Please send your answer also to [email protected]

Thanks a lot

And to change it to what you might prefer too. It works (if it's on) only if
you enter all the numbers with no spaces and no formatting. You can always
override the standard formatting - say, for a number from another country -
by explicitly typing the nonstandard formatting.
