MS Office Outlook won't let delete a telephone number.

[stanleypatkan]

I try to delete a phone number in contacts but outlook won"t let me do it. It
keeps putting up a dialog box asking for area code. I don't wamt to put in a
phone number. I have to go to Task Manager to unlock the program.

You cannot use any of Outlook's phone number fields until you set the
default dialing location for your operating system.

I think I might be having the same problem; how do you set the default
dialling location? In the "Standortinformationen" popup that appears when I
try to deal with phone numbers in Outlook 2007, it gives me a big list of
Land / Region's, but, this list doesn't include "Grossbritannien",
"British..." or "England" or any other of the potential German words for
England, so I'm stumped what to set the value as.

Any ideas? I've posted a new thread with more details and have screen shots
of the popups if it's not clear which ones I mean. (Ask me, I'll put them
online and provide links to them)
