Defining long distance numbers in your area code

In some locations, calls within the same area code are considered long distance calls. These calls require the country code and area code (e.g. 1-403) to be added to the front of the telephone number before they can be dialed.

The Toll Prefixes feature allows you to define the prefixes (e.g. 222-xxxx) that are long distance calls in your area code.

To define toll prefixes:

1.Click the Tools menu and then click Toll Prefixes. The Toll Prefixes dialog box appears.

2.From the list of prefixes in the Local phone numbers select the prefix that requires an area code added.

3.Click the Add->button.

4.Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each prefix that requires an area code added.

Note: If you add a prefix to the Dial first list that does not require an area code, remove it by clicking the prefix and clicking the <-Removebutton.

5.When you have finished moving all of the prefixes that require an area code, click the OK button.

The Toll Prefixes dialog box closes.

The Toll Prefixes feature is available only if the country you choose in the Dialing Properties dialog box has a country code of 1. For more information about dialing properties, refer to Changing the dialing properties on page 20.
