ok i try the cvs this evening at 19:00
I add the spaces and the +, () signs. The reason is, Outlook expects the query in a special format. That's what the code does. Formatting the number for Outlook-lookup. Maybe you tell me what problem you got with it? If it's not working for you, post all log-lines containing "ISDN: " (change your phone-number to 1234567, of course). Also, tell me, how your ISDN configuration looks like. Make sure to grab the latest CVS before checking again, please.umtauscher said:Hi mPod,
thanks for that great plugin. I just discovered it in the latest CVS.
What I would suggest is, that you be a bit more forgiving with the format of the telefone numbers. For example blanks in the number prevent the plugin from recognizing it. It relally would be nice, if you could remove the blanks - and perhaps other special characters- from the phone number before you compare it to the incoming call.
Thanks again, and keep up the good work
I see. This explains your concern. I'll fix it for you. (Besides: Yes, you have to blame M$, because according to their standards for telephone numbers in contacts you shouldn't format your numbers. But I understand, why you did this.)umtauscher said:Well, I thought the lookup would work the other way arround..
Anyway, the number is formatted +49 (221) 12 34 56.
The incoming numer is 0221123456
There is no match found, because of the spaces in my Outlook contact's phone enty.(When I remove the extra space the enty is found.
If Outlook is performing the search, then I suppose I have to blame M$ for this. Nevertheless it's quite impractical to reformat every number in my phonebook. (BTW I am using Outlook 2000)
Okay, I fixed that yesterday (at least I was hoping so). I'll fine-tune it again.umtauscher said:I stripped the first 0 by setup of your plugin. (Unfortunately internal number s are stripped as well. Wouldn't it be better to strip only a leading 0? Another solution would be to set a minimal length of external numbers and strip only those. In that way you could define the minimal lngth to 3 and leave the internals untouched, because they are only 2 digits in my case.
