How can I prevent my contacts from auto formating my phone numbers to (xxx)
xxx-xxxx? Now when I active sync my phone it doesn't dial the numbers
correctly.

I have checked the dial properties. I am using Office 2007 but apparently
this has affected the latest update for Office 2003 also.

Thanks

Formatting of phone numbers in Outlook is hard coded and cannot be changed.
Outlook must present the same database to all interfaces. If your phone
requires numbers in a different format, its synchronization software should
accommodate that.
