2.On the Personal tab, select Phone .

3.On the Dialing tab, set any of the following options:

■Dialing from North America: Format phone numbers using North American conventions (XXX-XXX-XXXX) and set the International Dialing Prefix to 011. If you travel outside North America and service is available in your location, remember to disable this option before you place phone calls.

■Always dial 1 in front of area code: Add a 1 in front of 10-digit phone numbers. This option is available only when Dialing from North America is enabled.

■International Dialing Prefix: Add the specified number in front of international phone numbers when you dial from outside North America. (When you dial an international number beginning with + [plus sign], the + is replaced by the number in this field.)
