["rleong1" <rleong1@xxxxxxxxx>]

thanks this rev works fine now.

on a different topic, i installed switchboard to try out.  will this
work for us in the US (for our phone # system)?  i asumme the STD
field is the same as our area code?

i installed the outlook plugin and followed the instructions but its
not importing contacts.  i do have 2 different profiles in outlook,
one for me & one for the wife.
