Does anyone know how to stop autocorrections in Outlook Contacts?  I'm sick
of Microsoft dictating how I should format phone numbers in my address book.  
In past editions, you could stop the damn software from changing the phone
number format, but now it insists on putting the city code in parentheses.

To the best of my knowledge, Outlook has always done that.  Since it's
hard-coded and based on your dialing and modem settings in Windows, there's
no way to stop it without misconfiguring your dialing properties.
