I'm a new Outlook user and am using the program in my
home office--in other words, I'm not on a network. Often
when I type or paste the phone number of a new contact
into the box on a new address form, Outlook automatically
tries to dial the phone number. When I try to Cancel,
Outlook immediately tries to dial again. Each time this
has occurred, I've been unable to stop the cycle and have
had to force a shutdown. It literally froze my computer.
I did receive an error message once that even said some
programs would immediately try to reconnect if I
cancelled. But that was the only option. And even if I
clicked on the Outlook Address box and tried to shut it
down, I still got the pop-up box asking if I want to
cancel the autodial or not.
Very strange and frustrating. Any thoughts?
