Hi,

I have a problem I'd like to share All my contacts on my pc all have their phone number put in as international, ie they're put in as +44 7767577677 (imaginary no. btw). Now the problem I have is that when I receive txts off said person, fine their 'Name' comes up in the From box. When I send a txt to anyone, in the Sent Items the box says '+44 7767577677' instead of their name.

I'm pretty sure this is because of the space between the +44 and the number. But how do I change this on outlook without editing every contact. This is the normal way outlook deals with these numbers.

Is this a known bug, and is there a workaround either on outlook or the phone itself.

Ooh Whilst Im at it I have another problem - Mobile numbers are specified as 'Mobile' in Outlook, yet when I comes to syncing and looking at the contacts on my phone, all mobile numbers have a (w) after them which means work, not mobile!! pffft.

Any help greatly appreciated!

Cheers,

nige

Can't help I'm afraid. This is my pet peeve with the P900. Seems ludicrous that a space in the phone number causes so many problems. And really annoying that you can't switch of the 'feature' in Outlook!

Let me know if you have any joy.
