• To enter a User Identification Number, select “Dial Setup” from the “File” menu and click on the “User ID” button. When a user ID number is entered in the “User ID” dialog, it is automatically sent whenever you dial a long distance number.
• In some cases, a number which includes an area code is a local call. To prevent the user ID number from being sent, a “key” character can be placed within the phone number which is recognized by the Address Book dialer and prevents the user ID number from being sent. Any character, with a few exceptions, can be used as the key, and is entered in the “User ID” dialog. The exceptions are # * - ? and the comma. You don’t have to remember these; they will automatically be rejected. For example, enter the plus sign as the key; dialing 305 345 9876 sends the user ID; 305+345 9876 does not send the ID number.
• This key character can be placed anywhere in the phone number. If you already have a list in which many numbers require a key character inserted, then the Search menu Replace feature makes it easy. For example, put “305” in the “Replace” text box and “305+” in the “with” text box, select “In phone” and “Match Words”, then click on the “Verify” button. As Address Book finds each occurrence of the area code, it displays the name and phone number so you can decide whether or not to insert the key character.
