Phone Numbers

    • You can precede a phone number with a comma to create a 2-second pause before the number is dialed when you click the phone number hyperlink. Also, the 2-second pause occurs when you "blind transfer" a call by dragging and dropping a call on a name in a directory.

    • If you select Auto Dial Extension, when you click to dial this phone number in a directory view, it automatically dials the extension too. For more information, see Click to Dial a Directory Contact.

    Note: The Auto Dial Extension check box is available only when the corresponding phone number and extension have values.

    • If you want to auto dial both the phone number and extension in this Properties dialog box, click the Ext. hyperlink.

Note: For information about entering, editing and verifying phone numbers, see Phone Number Controls.

  1. Click OK to close the Properties dialog box.
