How do I get OUtlook to stop inserting a "1" in the dial string? I need to
dial long distance as "8 303 555 1212" but Outlook insists on dialing "8 1
303 555 1212".

Adjust your Windows dialing properties.

Not much help, Brian. I'm running XP Pro, I've been in PHONE and MODEM
OPTIONS a dozen or so times. The only place where the "1" is specifiied is
if special Area Code rules are set (none are on my machine). I have "9" set
for local calls, "8" for long distance - yet Outlook always wants to dial "8
1" for a LD call.
