Dialing formats

Numbers must be in the canonical dialing format in order for your PDA to
use them for dialing.

The canonical address format is a universal telephone number format

recognized by the Windows Telephony Application Interface (TAPI).

The canonical format identifies the components of a telephone number,

which TAPI translates according to a country’s or region’s dialing rules.

The canonical format is:

+ Country/Region Code (Area Code) Subscriber number

Note: For further information on canonical dialing, refer to the

Microsoft web site.

When you select File > Contacts and double-tap a number to dial from

the contacts list, the Phone details dialog box appears, shown in

Figure 19 on page 44. The dialog box provides options for the criteria to
properly route your call.

Use the Phone details dialog box to:

modify the number being dialed

select or deselect canonical dialing rules

interpret the number as a private network (ESN) number
