I enter phone numbers as xxx.xxx.xxxx They are then being automatically
converted to (xxx) xxx-xxxx. How do I turn off that feature? I do not want
the phone numbers displayed that way, I would like them to display the way I
entered them. Thanks.

Sorry, you can't. Masking of phone numbers is hard coded in Outlook.
