Outlook 2007 phone number format incompatible with...

I use MS Outlook to organise my E-mail, Calendar, Tasks, Contacts, Notes, etc.
With Contacts, the Outlook format is for example:
+00 (000) 0000000
Nokia PC Suite can recognise the above number while Nokia Ovi Suite cannot.
For example, in PC Suite, in Messages, the above Outlook format is recognised and assigned the correct name and other details.

outlook and the phone does synchronise, that is, the contacts from outlook synchronises with the contactsin the phone. the issue i have is with the Ovi Suite Messaging.
there are two types of contacts and the number format:
1. contacts i added using the mobile phone and has the number format:
+000000000000
2. contacts i added using Outlook and has the number format:
+00 (000) 0000000
in Ovi Suite Messanging, the names of the contacts using method 1, those added using the phone, appear. when the person sends a message, the software recocnises the number, associates the name and messaging thread
the contacts added using method 2, on the other hand, are not recognised by the software, and therefore appear as the number (+000000000000) rather than the name.
and so i have two messaging threads for every contact:
1. a thread where i sent the text, because i used the number from Outlook. and its all sent messages
2. a thread where i received the text because the Ovi Suite does not recognise the number +000000000000 because the number in the contact that was from outlook is +00 (000) 0000000
with Nokia PC Suite, the software associates the number with the contact from Outlook. so i would receive a message with +000000000000 and it would assign the correct contact with +00 (000) 0000000
will this get sorted? i like the concept of the Ovi Suite but its not very user friendly. now im tempted to get either a blackberry or iphone.

  • ICloud you have the ability to NOT format phone numbers of contacts; this ability is not available on the contacts of iPhone. If I set-up a phone number in iCloud with NO parenthesis, ex. 123- 456-7899, then this format should be available on the iPhone

    In iCloud you have the ability to NOT format phone numbers of contacts; this ability is not available on the contacts of iPhone. If I set-up a phone number in iCloud with NO parenthesis, ex. 123- 456-7899, then this format should be available on the iPhone contact.

    That is correct is doesn't. Standardized formatting of phone numbers in the iOS app is more important because it supports contact from a variety of locations (gmail, hotmail, etc.). iCloud doesn't (not directly).

  • 10 digit phone number format

    Does anyone know of a way to change the default BB 10-digit phone number format of NNNNNNNNNN to include either spaces or parentheses?  i.e. (NNN) NNN-NNNN or NNN NNN NNNN.   

    Hi and welcome to the forums.
    If you setup your contact in the (722-344-66770 you can certainly do it. The field is numeric..
    You can view the contact and it will be that format, but when you dial, it will just be numbers, The telco has no need of the dashes and parenthesis so the BB doesn't waste space displaying and sending them.
    The dashes and () in this case mean nothing to the telco. There are symbols that do, but if you stay with these your safe.

  • SQL phone number format check

    Hello, I am looking for a programmatic way to check phone number formats in my database using SQL. The phone numbers MUST be one of 2 formats:
    XXX-XXX-XXXX or (XXX)XXX-XXXX
    I want to return the row if they are NOT one of these formats.
    Thank you!

If spaces are not invalid as long as the rest meets the format, two parens and a hyphen or two hyphens (i.e. the second one could be valid, but not the third and fifth) then use replace to get rid of spaces first and nvl to deal with nulls like:

  • Phone number format in Mountain Lion

    My old Address Book (prior to Mountain Lion's change to Contacts) had hundreds of phone numbers wirth the preference that they would NOT be auto formatted --- I entered the numbers just as I wanted them to appear. Now, after updating to Mountain Lion, all my phone numbers ar formatted the SAME (U.S. convention with use of parenthesis) which is not what I want. Anyone know of a workaround (or will Apple correct this with an update?).

    Apple's software engineers probably all live in the greater San Francisco are, where there aren't any area code overlays, which would potentially explain why they didn't think to allow xxx-xxx-xxxx as an alternative format.
    I think the explanation is that they all have cell phones. Apple expects everyone to be in the habit of prefixing all phone numbers with "+<country code>". If you do that, your cell phone will be smart enough to figure out how many digits it needs to dial. Land lines can't do that. Here in Ontario, things are pretty antiquated, If I dial a 905 number, it may or may not be local. I can't tell until I try. If I don't add the 1, I'll be chastised for attempting to make a long distance call without the 1 and get hung up on. If I just add the one and don't need it, I'll be chastised for that too and hung up on.
    So, if you create a phone number in Contacts with "+1", you get a US-style number useable anywhere in the world from a cell phone. If you prefix with a "+33", you get a French-style number useable from anywhere on a cell phone. Apple doesn't do hybrids because that assumes you are dialing the number by hand and no one does that anymore.

    Uploading photos and videos taken on your iPhone to your computer should be quite straightforward. You simply attach your iPhone to the computer with the USB cable that came with your iPhone. The computer should recognize your iPhone as a camera and start its photo handling software.
    There are instructions on exactly how to do this for the PC and Mac here:

    The iPad is not capable of sending an SMS message so texts, pictures, etc., must go through iMessage.  The destination device must be registered with the Apple servers by turning on iMessage.  Therefore, the user with the iPhone must enable it for iMessage.

  • Other country address/ phone number formats??

    Does anyone know if you can enter individual telephone numbers into a contact's card in the telephone number format of that country? For instance when I want to add a French friend's address and phone number it reverts to US standards, ie: (**)-***-***, when I really need to put the phone number in their French format, like: ** ** ** ** **.
    The same applies to that person's street/town address too, it has to be in the USA format not their French way of listing addresses.
    I cannot find a way of not applying the country specific "global" address and phone number formatting to individuals who do not have a US address......Am I missing something here? This has been annoying me for some while, while most of my contacts are USA based I'd really like to be able to list other friends and contacts who live elsewhere in a proper regional way...... So I thought I'd reach out to others to see if there's a solution here....thanks!

    Hello Peter,
    Under preferences inside the address book, there is a phone preference to edit or creative formats for displaying phone numbers in your address book.
    "Automatically format phone numbers"
    When this option is selected, Address Book formats phone numbers for you when you enter them. To create a new format, click the Add button and type a format in the Format field.
    Thanks,
    Hope this work out for you!

  • International Phone Number formatting

    Hello all,
    I'm wondering if there are any open source phone number formatting libraries out there? The phone numbers can come from anywhere in the world.
    I would get something like this
    0112024444444
    Algeria
    and get
    011 20 (2) 444-4444
    Thanks,
    Ralph

    I'm sure there are, but there's a lot of formats out there. Why not just have a single field and let people put what they want. If it's not a valid number, then they won't get a call.

  • Allow Multiple Phone Number Formats

    Hi folks,
    In the past I have always set the Phone Number format using the simple Arbitrary Mask feature in the text box properties e.g. (99) 9999 9999 but I have a form where two different phone number formats are acceptable (an Australian landline OR mobile).
    They are:
    (99) 9999 9999
    9999 999 9999
    Is this only possible through the magic of Javascript? I have tried Googling and found nothing.

    Thank you for your reply GKaiseril. I think I'm starting to undertsand it a little bit, especialyul after reading a similar thread that you contruibuted to here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/861867
    My understanding is that the "vr re_NA_Phone_Commit =" bit specifies where the spaces are in the strong of numebrs, where the brackets go etc. But doesn't this still only set one type of format?
    If I use the following code, it turns 0399999999 (an example landline number) into (03) 5499 9999, great! But if I typed in 0499999999 (an example mobile number) I want it to become 0499 999 999 becasue that's how we format mobile numbers.
    // custom format
    var re_NA_Phone_Commit = /^\(?([0-9]{2})\)?[. ]?([0-9]{4})[-. ]?([0-9]{4})$/
    if(re_NA_Phone_Commit.test(event.value)) 
    event.value = "("+ RegExp.$1 +") " + RegExp.$2 + "-" + RegExp.$3;
    else {
    event.value = "";
