So you're saying that all I need to do is enter the phone numbers like this:
+1 (xxx) xxx-xxxx and I won't have to make any further changes when faxing?

I frequently fax documents from my computer to local clients using my
Outlook
address book. Since these clients are in the same area code as my office,
I
am required to manually remove their area code before dialing, regardless
if
I am sending to one contact or a group. I've looked through all of the
options but cannot find the workaround for this problem. Does anyone know
the solution?
