Default Phone Numbers and Blackberry - Phone Number Extensions

How do I type phone numbers with extensions in Outlook Contacts so that
when it is transferred to a Blackberry it will dial the phone numbers
with the extensions?

A question for Blackberry, not Outlook.

Blackberry.

I'm sure you do. It is the responsibility of Blackberry's synch software to
transfer those numbers to the device in a format in which they can be used.
Outlook is the server here. It's job is to present a consistent interface,
which it does. --

Include "p"s in your phone number. Eg, my phone number is 123456 with the
extension 0987, I input the phone number into Outlook as 123456pp0987

p is the universal mobile/cellphone digit for a pause. A longer pause is
obtained by following with another p

How many p's required is dependant on the make an model of the phone system
you are calling.

Hope that helps

I use:
+1 (999) 999-9999 x999

and it works fine
