area code default

[Cynthia Martin]

For some reason when I do not add an area code to my
phone numbers, it always defaults to (707) when adding a
contact. how do I erase that default

Outlook always adds your default dialing location.
Apparently you set that to 707.

So how do I eliminate this default in the dailing area.
I went to tools and did not see anywhere to make that .

This is an operating system setting, not an Outlook setting.
You did not specify your operating system.
Check Control Panel > Phone and modems... for most OS.

Now if you can tell me the really big trick to go and find all the contacts
(thousands) with the 707 and change them with one strock.....haha
