cant' add contact in outlook

[UltraStar]

When I go to add a contact i get a new window "Location Information" wanting
my area code and country/region drop down menu. I'm to choose what country I
live in but the list is EMPTY! My Regional/Language settings in control
panel is fine.
I just bought OUtlook2007 hoping it would fix the problem in Outlook 2003
but to no avail! Same problem!
Thanks for you response in advance!

Sounds like you have a third-party contact add-in.

GOrdon: Thanks for the response. I 'm not aware of have any 3rd party
contact software apart from the fact I have Palm Software installed. Would
that be the problem?
Thnaks again

Go to Control panel, Phone and modem options and set up your calling
information. That should fix it.

I went to phone & modem options. That is precisely the screen I get when
trying to enter a new contact and that country drop down box is empty. So at
least now I know that the phone modem thing is the problem. How do I get the
country list in there?
Thanks again.

That is a windows feature... google found this article:
http://windowsitpro.com/article/art...em-options-when-you-setup-a-new-location.html -
I don't think this is exactly this because if telephony is not started, I
don't think you'll get the dialog.

Also see this thread:
http://www.eggheadcafe.com/software/aspnet/30141653/phone-and-modem-options-p.aspx

if neither help, you'll need to ask in the windows newsgroups on this
server.
