How do I modify Contact phone number options in the drop down list? It
already has Business, Home, Car, Business 2, ISDN...but I want to add Skype
to the drop down list that appears when you click on the drop-down arrow
under Phone Numbers from a specific Contact. Thank you!

What's sad is that this has been a feature request since 2002 and it's still
not part of outlook.
