You need to either pick up the telephone hand set or get a headset to use with the telephone.

||| |||| Where do I find "Autodialer?" It's not in Outlook 2007. I am
|||| using Windows
|||| XP Pro and I cannot find it there either.
||||
|||| RESOLUTION:
|||| Click AutoDialer, and then click Dialing Properties.
|||| 2. In the I am dialing from section, click Remove. Repeat this
|||| step to remove all dialing properties locations.
|||| 3. Click New, type the country or region and area code that you
|||| want, make any other changes that are necessary for your location,
|||| and then click OK.
